Essay question: augustine argues that the morality of love is held captive in cities (empires) ruled by honour. This is so regardless of whether honour is self-serving (a vice) or in service of the common good (a virtue). Write an essay that develops a thesis about what difference augustine"s morality of love makes in a world ruled by honour. Your essay should engage augustine and at least one of the contemporary scholars that we read: lendon, meyer or cohen.
