Letters, Volume 3 (131-164)

During the brief period between 412 and 414, Augustine's many theological and pastoral concerns produced an abundant correspondence (Letters 131-164) on issues ranging from the Pelagian views of grace and the soul's origin to the need for assimilating former Donatists into Catholic society with compassion and a conciliatory spirit, as well as questions of theology, social mores, and physical versus spiritual knowledge.
