Augustine on divine foreknowledge and human free will

Revue d'Etudes Augustiniennes et Patristiques, 1994
Afin d'aller au-dela de la critique formulee par Rowe sur la defense de la prescience divine et du libre-arbitre par Augustin, l'A. affirme qu'il y a deux raisonnements dans le De Liberio Arbitrio III, ii-iv.
