How can I find out how Augustine viewed Jews and Judaism using my Logos Bible Software? What are some good books on the topic? I tried Augustine NEAR Jews OR Judaism
You shouldn't expect to see Augustine's name most of the time.
I would make a temporary collection of author:Augustine and search for Jew OR Judaism for references actually in his works.
I would make a temporary collection of subject:Augustine and try the same search for secondary sources.
You may need to use "Augustine of Hippo" to not pick up "Augustine of Canterbury" but because Augustine so often omits the "of Hippo", I would try without it first.
I only have one primary source of Augustine. How can I fix this type of search without owning the primary sources? How does one make a temporary collection?
Books Search – Logos Help Center limit the books searched show temporary collections.
The all search will search the Logos catalogue rather than your library. I think that is true even without the Logos Pro add on.
How does one make a temporary collection?
In Books Search, click the option for selecting books and type author:Augustine into the box, then click the text below the box.
How can I fix this type of search without owning the primary sources?
Secondary sources include the Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, which are part of the 19 books stated for author:Augustine.
I would try a search for heading/largetext:(Jew OR Judaism) so as to get a discussion/article on the topic.
