He developed his theory of divine grace mainly in his systematic treatises directed against the Pelagians (ca. 411-430). Did he however also preach about this complex, and at first sight ?demoralizing?, issue in his sermons to the people ? In his previous book (BSCH 59), Anthony Dupont studied the profile of the treatment of gratia in the anti-Pelagian sermones ad populum . In a Preacher of Grace Dupont offers an account of the presence of the theme of grace in Augustine?s sermones not situated in the Pelagian controversy. He first studies sermons preached on important liturgical feasts, which belong to the (non-polemical) pastoral preaching genre. They are distributed throughout the 40 years of Augustine?s preaching activity, and are Christological in content and moralising in intention. Secondly, he examines sermons situated in the Donatist controversy, preceding the anti-Pelagian sermons chronologically and differing from them in terms of content. This research provides a global picture of the presence and treatment of gratia in Augustine?s sermones and clarifies the interaction between context, audience and preaching genre on the one hand, and the theme of grace as a whole on the other. It also contributes to the debate on (dis)continuity in Augustine?s thought on grace. 410 0$aStudies in the history of Christian traditions ;$vVolume 177. 606 $aGrace (Theology)$xHistory of doctrines$yEarly church, ca. 30-600 606 $aFasts and feasts$vSermons 606 $aChurch year sermons 606 $aDonatists 606 $aChurch history$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600 615 0$aGrace (Theology)$xHistory of doctrines 615 0$aFasts and feasts 615 0$aChurch year sermons. 615 0$aDonatists. 615 0$aChurch history 676 $a234 700 $aDupont$b Anthony$0732697 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787979103321 996 $aPreacher of grace$93808544 997 $aUNINA
