| book description |

English summary: Augustine's De Trinitate is one of the most significant Christian works of antiquity. Roland Kany does a critical reassessment of international research carried out during the last 160 years on all aspects of this work. In modern systematic theology, Augustine's doctrine of the Trinity has for the most part been understood in a traditional manner and rejected. Current patristic research has given the work a new interpretation, has however neglected its philosophical implications. Philosophers are presently rediscovering Augustine's theory of self-consciousness in De Trinitate, but paying no attention to its theological context. Kany suggests a new interpretation, contending that Augustine's concept of self-consciousness solves a fundamental problem of ancient philosophy. Augustine uses the solution of this problem as a basis for a completely new theology of the Trinity. German description: Augustins De trinitate ist eines der bedeutendsten und tiefgrundigsten Werke, die das antike Christentum hinterlassen hat. Die internationale Forschung daruber war bisher kaum mehr uberschaubar. Roland Kany unterzieht in diesem Band uber funfhundert Beitrage der vergangenen anderthalb Jahrhunderte einer kritischen Revision, von der Text- und Quellenkritik uber Spezialuntersuchungen und Gesamtdeutungen bis hin zu wirkungsgeschichtlichen Darstellungen. Aus dieser facettenreichen Bilanz ergeben sich die Konturen eines neuen Gesamtbildes von De trinitate. Wahrend in der modernen Systematischen Theologie Augustins Trinitatslehre in ihrer traditionellen Lesart zumeist abgelehnt wird, strebt die gegenwartige patristische Forschung auf eine veranderte Interpretation des Werkes zu, ignoriert allerdings seinen philosophischen Gehalt. Philosophen hingegen entdecken zur Zeit Augustins Theorie des Selbstbewusstseins in De trinitate wieder, lassen aber deren theologischen Zusammenhang ausser acht. Roland Kany schlagt eine neue, integrale Auslegung vor. Demnach lost Augustins Einsicht in die Struktur des Selbstbewusstseins ein unbewaltigtes Grundlagenproblem der antiken Philosophie und gewinnt aus eben dieser Losung den Ansatz zur Uberwindung von Mangeln der vorherigen Trinitatstheologie.
