Summary: | The article aims to give an overall overview of Saint Augustine's attitude towards the Gnostic Christians Manichaeans. First a historical overview mainly based on his Confessions outlines Augustine's acquaintance with the members of the manichaean church and his familiarity with their writings. Second the place of the Manichaeans in a considerable number of Augustine's works is discussed. It is in particular in his many anti-Manichaean writings that the Church father displays his intimate knowledge of their myth and their doctrines. Third, a summary is given of the research on the impact of the Manichaeans on Augustine. It is concluded that from his early years onwards to the very end of his life, the Manichaean Christians were a real and powerful force to him. |
