41. Biography: Monnica, Mother Of Augustine Of Hippo (4 May 387) Profile. Includes prayer in traditional and contemporary language. http://elvis.rowan.edu/~kilroy/JEK/05/04.html

Monnica, Mother of Augustine of Hippo 4 May 387 We know about Monnica almost entirely from the autobiography (the Confessions ) of her son Augustine, a major Christian writer, theologian and philosopher (see 28 August). Monnica was born in North Africa, near Carthage, in what is now Tunisia, perhaps around 331, of Christian parents, and was a Christian throughout her life. Her name has usually been spelled "Monica," but recently her tomb in Ostia was discovered, and the burial inscription says "Monnica," a spelling which all AC (Archaeologically Correct) persons have hastened to adopt. (On the other hand, it may simply be that the artisan who carved the inscription was a bad speller.) As a girl, she was fond of wine, but on one occasion was taunted by a slave girl for drunkenness, and resolved not to drink thereafter. She was married to a pagan husband, Patricius, a man of hot temper, who was often unfaithful to her, but never insulted or struck her. It was her happiness to see both him and his mother ultimately receive the Gospel. After his baptism, Augustine and a younger brother Navigius and Monnica planned to return to Africa together, but in Ostia, the port city of Rome, Monnica fell ill and said, "You will bury your mother here. All I ask of you is that, wherever you may be, you should remember me at the altar of the Lord. Do not fret because I am buried far from our home in Africa. Nothing is far from God, and I have no fear that he will not know where to find me, when he comes to raise me to life at the end of the world."

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... M > St. Monica St. Monica Widow ; born of Christian parents at Tagaste, North Africa , in 333; died at Ostia , near Rome , in 387. We are told but little of her childhood. She was married early in life to Patritius who held an official position in Tagaste . He was a pagan , though like so many at that period, his religion was no more than a name; his temper was violent and he appears to have been of dissolute habits . Consequently Monica's married life was far from being a happy one, more especially as Patritius's mother seems to have been of a like disposition with himself. There was of course a gulf between husband and wife; her almsdeeds and her habits of prayer annoyed him, but it is said that he always held her in a sort of reverence. Monica was not the only matron of Tagaste whose married life was unhappy, but, by her sweetness and patience, she was able to exercise a veritable apostolate amongst the wives and mothers of her native town; they knew that she suffered as they did, and her words and example had a proportionate effect. Three children were born of this marriage Augustine the eldest

After his conversion to Christianity and baptism (387), Augustine developed his own approach to philosophy and theology, accommodating a variety of methods and different perspectives.

Augustine (Aurelius Augustinus) was one of the greatest theologians of Western Christianity. (In his day the Mediterranean world consisted of an Eastern, Greek-speaking half and a Western, Latin-speaking half, with different ways of looking at things, and different habits of thought.) He was born 13 November 354 in North Africa, about 45 miles south of the Mediterranean, in the town of Tagaste (modern Souk-Ahras) in Numidia, in what is now Algeria, but near ancient Carthage (modern Tunis). His mother, Monnica , was a Christian, and his father for many years a pagan (although he became a Christian before his death). His mother undertook to bring him up as a Christian, and on one level he always found something attractive about Christ, but in the short run he was more interested in the attractions of sex, fame, and pride in his own cleverness. After a moderate amount of running around as a teen-ager, he took a mistress, who bore him a son when he was about eighteen. Theirs was a long-term relationship, apparently with faithfulness on both sides, and the modern reader is left wondering why he did not simply marry the girl. He never tells us this (and in fact never tells us her name), so that we can only guess. It seems likely that she was a freedwoman, and that the laws forbade marriage between a free-born Roman citizen and a slave, or an ex-slave. When he was 19 and a student at Carthage, he read a treatise by Cicero that opened his eyes to the delights of philosophy.

Downloads Search Blog Book Reviews Augustine of Hippo from Keith Mathison St. Augustine was born in A.D. 354 in the town of Thagaste in North Africa to a pagan father and a Christian mother. From these inauspicious beginnings, he would eventually become one of the most influential thinkers in the history of the Church and Western civilization. The ramifications of his debates with the Donatists and the Pelagians are still felt to this day in the Church. His Confessions remains a spiritual classic among Christians of widely varying traditions. His magnum opus, The City of God laid down the political and religious foundations for the following 1000 years of medieval history. Those involved in serious theological debate continue to appeal to the writings of Augustine for support. It is too easy, however, for those of us who live over 1500 years after his death to read his works in a vacuum, without taking into consideration the context in which they were written. We sometimes forget that Augustine was the Bishop of a small port town in North Africa called Hippo Regius and that he was living in a turbulent time in the waning days of the Western Roman Empire. We forget that he had to deal day in and day out with the pastoral pressures and distractions of a sinful congregation. We forget that he lived within a particular cultural, historical, religious and philosophical context that shaped his life and his work.Peter Brown has written a

Circumcellions Augustine of Hippo Manicheanism Neoplatonism For AugustineÕs Life: See James J. OÕDonnell, Augustine the African AugustineÕs Theology: AugustineÕs thought can be conveniently divided into four main issues, with his responses to each of the four. Much of AugustineÕs early intellectual pilgrimage was wrapped around his struggles with the nature of evil. AugustineÕs mother, Monica, had raised him as a north African Christian. Christianity in North Africa had a lively sense of the reality and pervasiveness of evil. As he was growing up, Augustine rejected the Christian (both Catholic and Donatist) anwer to the problem of evil, largely because he saw Christianty as an unsophisticated religion for peasants and women. He turned first to Manicheanism , a dualistic religion that resolved the problem of evil by blaming it on the powers of an evil god, and explained the history of the universe as an eternal struggle between two equal forces. After a number of years as a Manichean "hearer", Augustine rejected the Manichean worldview because he believed it was based on bad science [Confessions Book V]. Augustine then turned to Neoplatonic philosophy , which allowed him to explaine the existence of evil in a way that satisfied him even after his full conversion to Christianity. For Augustine, evil has no reality in itself, but is merely the absence of good, just as darkness has no reality in itself, but is merely the absence of light Ñone does not "turn on" the dark, one "turns off" the light. As such evil, or sin, is the choosing of the lesser good when one ought to choose a greater good. For example, the sin of gluttony is the result of loving food too much, or loving food more than loving justice or good health.

SAINT AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO BISHOP, DOCTOR OF THE CHURCH—354-430A.D. Feast: August 28 Pope Leo I, during whose pontificate Augustine was canonized, ordered that the feast of this saint should be observed with the same honors as that of an Apostle. In every succeeding age his memory has been held in the highest veneration and his writings have been an inspiration to Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Augustine was born on November 13, 354, at Tagaste, a small town of Numidia, North Africa, not far from the episcopal city of Hippo. His parents were citizens of good standing, though not wealthy. The father was one Patricius, a hot-tempered man and a pagan, who, under the influence of his Christian wife, the saintly Monica, learned patience and humility and was baptized shortly before his death. Of this union there were three children: Augustine, another son, Navigius, and a daughter, Perpetua, who became an abbess. He wrote the book, he says, for "a people curious to know the lives of others, but careless to amend their own," to demonstrate God's mercy as shown in the life of one sinner, and to make sure that no one should think him any better than he really was. With the utmost candor Augustine divulges the sins and follies of his youth, and at the end enumerates the weaknesses which still beset him. With a copy of the book which he sent to a friend, he wrote: "See now what I am from this book; believe me who bear testimony against myself, and regard not what others say of me."
