- This 175,000-word monograph of over 400 pages ranges across three centuries and the whole of North Africa. The result of eight years of sustained research on religious initiation, it offers an exhaustive study of Augustine, the most prolific author of Antiquity, and of all other available African sources, from theological treatises and sermons, to correspondence and legislation. It also engages extensively with the numerous theological and liturgical studies written in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Latin, and Spanish since the seventeenth century across Europe (listed in the 50-page long bibliography).
