The last years and dying days of Augustine are ones that are well recalled by historians and theologians. Perhaps the most central recounting is Peter Brown\u201fs still-magisterial biography of the Bishop of Hippo wherein he vivified the near-certain anxiety Augustine likely felt not only in terms of the lingering threat of the Vandals outside the walls of his limnal city but undeniably the concern over the value of his work and legacy in dealing with one of the greatest challenges he encountered in his ministerial life: the Donatist controversy.1 Altogether, from his ordination as presbyter and then bishop shortly after in the 390s to his eventual passing, few years came and went without some entanglement or conflict with the influential group. Indeed, Augustine\u201fs resilience year after year in engaging and defying the stand as a testament to the bishop\u201fs audacity and tenacious conviction.<\/p>\n
