Augustine and the functions of concupiscence

"....Timo Nisula analyses Augustine's own theological and philosophical concerns in his extensive writings about evil desire (concupiscentia, cupiditas, libido). Beginning with a terminlogical survey of the vocabulary of desire, the book demonstrates how the concept of evil desire was tightly linked with Augustine's fundamental theological views of divine justice, the origina of evil, Christian virtues and graces."--Back cover.
