| Итог: | Contemporary Augustinian political theology has encompassed numerous interpretations of Augustine's understanding of the two cities, but a common feature of many is a denial of the presence of natural law in the bishop's thought. This paper surveys three major interpreters of Augustine - Robert Markus, John Milbank, and Charles Mathewes - and their conceptions of the secular and its relation to natural law. It argues first that, despite major divergences, they share a common distrust of natural law. Second, drawing on Vincent Lloyd's distinction of natural law as process versus product, I suggest a picture of what a uniquely Augustinian account of natural law might entail, grounded in a semiotic theory of creation, a distinction between orders of nature and wills, and a view of the use-enjoyment paradigm. An Augustinian natural law, then, is not only warranted but also may be a useful means of rapprochement between Augustinians and natural law theologians. |
