Fathers of the Church
Letter Xvix
Description
This letter to Honoratus, a Donatist bishop, was omitted from the printed edition as containing nothing on the Donatist schism which is not already found in letters XLIII and XLIV, or supplied in letter LIII.
Provenance
The correspondence of St. Augustine that has been preserved includes more than 270 letters, including well over 200 written by him. Those numbered 31-123 span the period from his episcopal ordination until the conference between Catholic and Donatist bishops held in 411.
