I was wondering if anyone could offer some good books in Logos format that deals with Augustine Vs. Pelagius controversy. Thanks for your help.
The shortish Wikipedia article on Pelagius (q.v.) notes that not much has come down from his own hand since he was considered to be an heretic though the article seems to wish to rehabilitate him. Most information is therefore to be found in writings of his opponents detailed in the article — and possibly in the Council of Carthage.
EDIT: Note the "Writings by Pelagius" section of the article.

I would look at the bibliographies of some of Peter Brown's work and see if any of it is in Logos.
Harnack, which is still in community pricing, likely has a section - but it's been 30 years since I read Harnack so my memory may be unreliable. Then there is in prepub Augustine Through the Ages: An Encyclopedia which I haven't seen yet.
Thank you both for your help, it has been hard to find Logos resources for this research project.
MJ,
Your memory is doing fine. I have Harnack's History of Dogma at home in dead tree format and he does deal with it. That is part of the CP offering for his works. I did a quick search of my library on Biblia.com and got hits in the various assorted dictionaries as well as in Schaff's History of the Christian Church and the following:
- A Manual of Councils of the Holy Catholic Church (part of the Catholic History and Dogma Collection - 8 volumes)
- Sources of Catholic Dogma (also part of the CHD collection above)
- The Cross and Salvation
- Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers vols. III, IV, V, VI, XI, XII, XIV
- Systematic Theology by Charles Hodge
- Great Doctrines of the Bible-Vol 2 by Martyn Lloyd-Jones
This is not all the stuff I found but I figured these were the most relevant to a research project as far as I can tell. I'm on Scholar's Silver with a total (excluding Perseus) of a little over 1600 resources, not a very large library compared to others on the forum. I got a total of 671 hits on the name Pelagius. Hope this helps.
Sorry, instead of The Cross and Salvation I should have put The Cross and Salvation: The Doctrine of Salvation by Bruce Demarest.
Here's the link: http://www.logos.com/product/2952/the-cross-and-salvation-the-doctrine-of-salvation
And I was wrong about the A Manual of Councils of the Holy Catholic Church. It contains 2 volumes and is a stand-alone product as well as being a part of the Catholic Library Builder package.
