This book brings a variety of theological resources to bear on the now widespread effort to put humility in its proper place. In recent years, an assortment of thinkers have offered competing evaluations of humility, so that its moral status is now more contentious than ever. Like all accounts of humility, the one advanced in this study has to do with the proper handling of human limits.What early Christian resources offer, and what discussions of the issue since the eighteenth century have often overlooked, is an account of the ways in which human limits are permeable, superable and open to modification because of the working of divine grace. This notion is especially relevant for a renewed vision of intellectual humility-the primary aim of the project-but the study will also suggest the significance of the argument for ameliorating contemporary concerns about humility's generally adverse effects.

L’auteur donne ici une lecture approfondie de l’Eglise primitive au regard des multiples conflits qui l’animèrent : conflits liés aux personnes, crises internes dans la communauté chrétienne entre judéo-chrétiens et hellénistes, conflits entre Juifs, confrontations culturelles entre messagers de l’Evangile et univers économico- religieux du monde païen. Inhérentes à l’Eglise naissante, ces crises et leurs résolutions ont constitué des occasions fécondes pour redéfinir la mission ecclésiale et, surtout, poser des jalons pour une nouvelle communion. Le lecteur de cet ouvrage sera étonné des parallélismes éclatants qu’il peut faire avec des conflits personnels, ou collectifs, qui traversent la vie.

The book is about the evolution of 'Augustinianism' in a process of 'spiritual transvaluation' as Augustine of Hippo's thought was appropriated by spiritual masters in the mediaeval period. The chapters deal with a range of experiences in 'spiritual transvaluation' beginning with Augustine's own philosophic transvaluation of Christian 'affectivity'. The first study is about St Gregory the Great's 'pastoral' transvaluation of Augustine's spirituality; the second about William of St Thierry's 'mystical' transvaluation in the twelfth century; and the final one is about Walter Hilton's 'christo-centric' transvaluation, writing as an Augustinian Canon Regular in late fourteenth century England. The Epilogue draws together the themes of each chapter as a reflection about the spiritual nature of 'Augustinianism'.
