Summary
The epilogue recapitulates the course of this investigation into Augustine’s theology of the resurrection. It then considers how Augustine prepared both the members of the Catholic Church in Hippo for its life after his death and himself for his resurrection after his death. It looks forward in hope of encountering Augustine, living again and forever in the flesh, at the eschatological resurrection.
