'Beginning from Jerusalem': Luke 24.47 in Augustine's anti-Donatist Ecclesiology

研究范围拟议的哲学博士工作的纲领性核心是通过对他的反多纳徒主义作品的某些特征的密切分析，重新评估希波的奥古斯丁的教会思想。特别要评估的是他围绕跨海洋教会重要性的论点的功能、史前史和含义。特别强调和研究的是他长期被忽视但经常使用的关于与耶路撒冷教会共融的必要性的论点，通过使用路加福音24. 47呼吁教会的起源，奥古斯丁使用与transmarine教会共融的必要性的论点，特别是耶路撒冷（反复引用路加福音的一个粒子）。24.47）和宝莲教会？奥古斯丁的教会学是如何与他的北非传统前辈（塞浦路斯，Optatus和良）相适应和相互作用的，特别是在transmarine教会的问题上？地方教会在奥古斯丁的教会学中扮演什么角色？对奥古斯丁关于与跨海洋教会共融的必要性的思考的重新认识，是如何破坏或挑战他的教会学的忏悔和传统解释的？奥古斯丁的遗产，在教会学和他思想的许多其他方面，在西方基督教界有着广泛而深刻的影响，使他的作品受到代表他的支持者和批评者的例行误读。这项研究的重点在于恢复一个重复的和突出的注意（transmarine教会的作用，特别是耶路撒冷），在他的教会工作，已被奇异地忽视。这是为了对奥古斯丁的学术研究提供新的见解，并对某些忏悔性的解读提供急需的纠正，这些解读认为他一方面提供了一个脱离制度约束的超灵性化教会（例如布耶，卡里），另一方面提供了一个原始教皇制度（例如查普曼）。与奥古斯丁研究相关的一些当代作品包括Merdinger（1997），Ployd（2015）以及Burns和詹森（2014）的作品。在东正教神学家越来越多地与奥古斯丁接触的时期，这项研究希望在这一轨道上工作，开启奥古斯丁思想与当代东正教教会学问题的共鸣。研究方法正如预期的奥古斯丁的工作，大部分的主要来源材料可在现代版本; CSEL和CCL包含所有需要的作品。奥古斯丁的主要来源和作品的系统文学研究将形成研究的主要重点。我建议的研究范围是在奥古斯丁的专门反多纳徒活动的更成熟的时期，大致从德baptismo在第5世纪之交，直到刚刚失败的天主教和多纳徒主教座谈会在迦太基的411。关键来源，在降序的重要性，将分为奥古斯丁的论战反多纳徒作品，他的相关说教方案，他的信件和conciliar活动。这项研究的主要试金石将是奥古斯丁的德unitate ecclesiae，其中呼吁耶路撒冷教会使用路加福音24.47是最突出的。此外，仔细研究他的教会学的来源和前辈（塞浦路斯，Optatus和良）将需要帮助理解他的思想和他自己的传统中的作用。由于教会学的问题涉及政治和社会关系，奥古斯丁的书信材料的研究（最相关的是埃普。49，54-55，76，87，141，185，198-9）和规范的传统，在北非和国外将需要密切关注。

Research scopeThe programmatic core of the proposed DPhil work is a re-evaluation of Augustine of Hippo's ecclesiological thought through a close analysis of certain features of his anti-Donatist works. What will be particularly assessed is the function, pre-history, and implications of his arguments around the importance of transmarine churches. What will be especially highlighted and studied is his long-neglected but often-employed argument on the necessity of communion with the Jerusalem Church, through an appeal to the origins of the Church using Luke 24.47To what ends does Augustine employ arguments for the necessity of communion with transmarine churches, especially Jerusalem (citing repeatedly a particle of Lk. 24.47) and the Pauline churches? How does Augustine's ecclesiology fit within and interact with his predecessors in the North African tradition (Cyprian, Optatus, and Tertullian), particularly on the question of transmarine churches?What is the role of local churches in Augustine's ecclesiology? How does a renewed appreciation of Augustine's thinking around the necessity of communion with transmarine churches disrupt or challenge confessional and traditional accounts of his ecclesiology? Research contextAugustine's legacy, in ecclesiology as in many other aspects of his thought, has a broad and deep influence in Western Christendom, making his works subject to routine misreadings on behalf of both his partisans and detractors. The emphasis of this research lies in recovering a repeated and prominent note (the role of transmarine churches, especially Jerusalem) in his ecclesiological work that has been singularly neglected. This has the goal of contributing fresh insights into Augustinian scholarship, and of offering a much-needed corrective to certain confessional readings that see him offering either an ultra-spiritualised Church divorced from institutional constraints (e.g. Bouyer, Cary) on the one hand, or a proto-papal system on the other (e.g. Chapman). Some of the more contemporary pieces of Augustine research that are relevant include the works of Merdinger (1997), Ployd (2015), and Burns and Jensen (2014). In a period of increasing engagement with Augustine from Orthodox theologians, this research hopes to work in this trajectory, opening up resonances of Augustine's thought with issues in contemporary Orthodox ecclesiology. Research methodAs is to be expected for Augustinian work, the bulk of the primary source material is available in modern editions; the CSEL and CCL contain all the required works. Systematic literary study of Augustine's key sources and works will form the main focus of research undertaken. The scope of my proposed research is on the more mature period of Augustine's dedicated anti-Donatist activity, roughly from the De baptismo at the turn of the 5th century until just after the failed colloquium of Catholic and Donatist bishops in Carthage of 411. The key sources, in descending order of importance, would be divided into Augustine's polemical anti-Donatist works, his associated homiletic programmes, and his letters and conciliar activity. The main touchstone of this study would be on Augustine's De unitate ecclesiae, in which the appeal to the Jerusalem church using Luke 24.47 is most prominent. Additionally, close study of the sources and predecessors of his ecclesiology (Cyprian, Optatus, and Tertullian) will be required to help understand his thought and role within his own tradition. Because the question of ecclesiology concerns political and social relationships, study of Augustine's epistolary material (the most relevant being Epp. 49, 54-55, 76, 87, 141, 185, 198-9) and the canonical tradition in North Africa and abroad will require close attention.
