Between Imperialism and Anarchy. The Paradox of L’altro Agostino by Gaetano Lettieri Twenty Years Later
Résumé
This note essentially constitutes a re-presentation of L’altro Agostino. Ermeneutica e retorica della grazia dalla crisi alla metamorfosi del De doctrina christiana (Brescia: Morcelliana, 2001) by Gaetano Lettieri. Reprinted in 2002, and long at the centre of the scholarly debate, L’altro Agostino has been a seminal and influential book. Over the past twenty years, however, Lettieri has had the opportunity to further develop his perspective, deepening some earlier insights. This brief discussion is then intended as a new critical evaluation of L’altro Agostino in light of the speculative progress of its author.
