MAGALHAES, Ana Paula Tavares. Augustine of Hippo (354-430) between the classic antiquity and the roman empire: instruction, education and action. Acta Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.41, e48029.  Epub 01-Sep-2019. ISSN 2178-5201.  https://doi.org/10.4025/actascieduc.v41i1.48029.

The North Africa churches used to be an advanced frontier for Christianization in the West World of the Late Antiquity. And yet, Augustine’s presence favorized the local tendency towards the debate about Christian faith, and the drawing of educational directions for the people. In Augustinian perspective, Education role overlapped formal rules of the Classic World disciplines, by proposing the raising of a new culture. The formative perspective was a highlight into the Augustinian activity, and that turned very quickly to the replacement of the knowledge in the way of Christianization. In the center of this arrangement were the works for laics, although never excluding bishop’s high writings.

Palabras clave : knowledge; episcopacy; christianity; North Africa; culture.
