In this episode of the History of Ideas Club, Jack Thomson (MA Philosophy, University of Buckingham) leads a discussion on St Augustine’s The City of God. We explore Augustine’s response to the fall of Rome, his vision of the earthly and heavenly cities, and the influence of his thought on theology, politics, and philosophy.

The History of Ideas Club meets bi-weekly in London to read and debate classic texts in philosophy and political thought. This recording brings the conversation to a wider audience.
