Thanksgiving Paper

1. Re-read the two page paper on flesh in The City of God (last 2 pages of packet given in class.)
2. Read the ten page paper on De Genesi contra Manichaeos. 
3. Assignment: Write a 4 page paper following these guidelines:

• First 2 pages should be a summary of the ten page paper on  De Genesi contra Manichaeos. Focus in on major themes and be sure to cite quotes directly from the paper. 
• Last 2 pages should be a comparison between the themes in the The City of God paper versus those in the  De Genesi contra Manichaeos paper. These are just places to start or even things to think about- you DO NOT HAVE TO USE THESE QUESTIONS IN YOUR ANALYSIS. 

                                              - Are Augustine's themes and concepts consistent?

                                              - How is flesh playing a role in the internal/external theme?

                                              - How does flesh impact unity?

                                             - Is flesh part of the natural order of things?
