PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
John Peter Kenney is Professor of Religious Studies at Saint Michael’s College, USA. He was previously Professor of Religion and Humanities at Reed College and then Dean of the College at Saint Michael’s. He is the author of Mystical Monotheism: A Study in Ancient Platonic Theology (1991), The Mysticism of Saint Augustine: Rereading the Confessions (2005) and Contemplation and Classical Christianity: A Study in Augustine (2013).
Kenney's work is notable. It touches upon areas which students and scholars studying Saint Augustine, the late Roman Empire, Constantine, or any related fields would find interesting. Kenney's work would be welcome in the library of any institution which focuses upon these areas of study. * Catholic Library World * Kenney is very helpful in prompting thought about the way in which transcendence-for Augustine as well as for the broader mainstream Christian theological tradition-is nestled together with these other themes. * Reading Religion * So pervasive is the influence of Augustine that few have the imagination to see him with fresh eyes. John Peter Kenney, a thoroughly modern thinker with an enviable knowledge of ancient philosophy and the church fathers, draws on Augustine to help contemporary readers see the strangeness of God and the folly of approaching God as a spectator. This is a book that invites contemplation. * Robert Louis Wilken William R. Kenan, Jr., Emeritus Professor of the History of Christianity, The University of Virginia, USA *
