Sumario:This work on Augustine's use and interpretation of Romans 7,24-25a uses it as a 'lens through which to view and judge the interworkings of scripture and rhetoric in Augustine's own development (p.433). Noticing change and development in Augustine's interpretation of this text. M. highlights a rhetorical dimension to that progression' and be identifies three moments in that development: a rhetoric of conversion, of captivity and of antithesis. There is much richness to be found in these pages, a reading of Augustine that can begin to renew and even refocus some of the issues that touch Augustine's interpretation of Paul and his understanding of grace and freedom.
