St Augustine of Hippo (/ɒˈɡʌstɨn/;[1] Laitin: Aurelius Augustinus Hipponensis;)[2] (November 13, 354 – August 28, 430), Bishop o Hippo Regius, forby kent as Augustine, St. Augustine, or St. Austin[3] wis a Laitin speakin philosopher an theologian livin in the Roman Africa Province. Augustine wis canonized bi popular acclaim, an later recognised as a Doctor o the Church in 1298 bi Pape Boniface VIII[4]. His feast day is August 28, the day on which he died. He is considered the patron saint o brewers, printers, theologians, sore een, an a nummer o ceeties an dioceses.[5] He is nae tae be confused wi St. Augustine of Canterbury(d.604)
Augustine, a Latin church father, is ane o the maist important feegurs in the development o Wastren Christianity. He "established anew the ancient faith" (conditor antiquae rursum fidei), accordin tae his contemporary, Jerome.[6] In his early years he wis hivily influenced bi Manichaeism an afterwards i the Neo-Platonism o Plotinus,[7] but efter his conversion an baptism (387), he developed his awn approach tae philosophy an theology accommodating a variety o methods an different perspectives.[8] He believed that the grace o Christ wis indispensable tae human freedom an framed the concepts o original sin an just war. When the Roman Empire in the West wis startin tae disintegrate, Augustine developed the concept o the Church as a spiritual City of God (in a book of the same name) distinct frae the material Earthly Ceety.[9] His thocht profoundly influenced the medieval worldview. Augustine's City of God wis closely identified wi the church, an wis the community which worshipped God.[10]
In the Catholic Church an the Anglican Communion, he is a saint an pre-eminent Doctor of the Church, an the patron o the Augustinian religious order; his memorial is celebrated 28 August. Mony Protestants, especially Calvinists, consider him tae be ane o the theological faithers o Reformation teachin on salvation an divine grace. In the Eastren Orthodox Kirk he is blessed, an his feast day is celebrated on 15 Juin.[11] Amang the Orthodox he is cried Blessed Augustine, or St. Augustine the Blessed.[12]
