Augustine's work De sermone domini in monte and the patristic exegesis Sermon on the mount and the plain
Kaška, Pavel ; Brož, Jaroslav (referee)
This rigorous work is the thesis of a future dissertation work, which deals with the work De sermone domini in monte of St. Augustine and other surviving patristic texts dealing with the Sermon on the Mount or the Sermon on the Plain or parts thereof. It seeks to compare different perspectives on these key sections of gospels. Since Augustine's work is the only one devoted entirely to the Sermon on the Mount, it tries to show its uniqueness and its inclusion in Augustine's work. This rigorous work summarizes the goals, methods and specifications that will lead to the dissertation. It also outlines the syllabus of future dissertation work and some results and elaboration that has already taken place, and presents secondary literature and sources on the topic.

This part also shows author's understanding of Christianity in relationship to paganism with an outcome that both groups are able to live together in peace. The third part is focused on current works of theologians and historians in which various aspects of Tertullian's work like innocence, grace or nature of true religion are depicted and discussed. Last but not least there are mentioned here the topics like question of God, his role for Roman emperors, pagans, but also for Christians who defend their way of life on principle of their belief. In the last part of the thesis I deal with the importance of Apologeticum for today's time. I concentrate mostly on the meaning we can derive from this work and how exactly we can transform his legacy into our daily life. My main findings in the evaluation of Tertullian's work in the context of today's times are...
