description: Examines Augustine's philosophical efforts to reconcile the convincing power of rhetoric and the "Truth" of the "Word" as revealed in the Bible. The basis for the reconciliation, argues the author, is Augustine's reading of the opening of the Gospel of John, in which Augustine found that communication is at the heart of the philosophy of the Trinity.
