Document Details : Title: 'Canta et ambula' Subtitle: Presentation and Critical Edition of Augustine's Sermo 256 on 'Alleluia' Author(s): HOUTHOOFD, Stijn Journal: Augustiniana Volume: 71 Issue: 2 Date: 2021 Pages: 231-255 DOI: 10.2143/AUG.71.2.3290228 Abstract : This article presents a new critical edition of Augustine’s s. 256, along with an introduction focusing on the sermon’s anti-Pelagian content and its transmission. The sermon, preached on May 5th 418, deals with the song Alleluia, while its criticism of Pelagianism is implied mainly in the bishop’s use of certain Bible verses, such as Matth. 6,12-13 and Rom. 7,22-25. The sermon’s critical edition could be improved considerably, thanks to the testimony of three homiliaries from England and one from Frankfurt, which constitute a branch unknown to the Maurists. |
