Added an image[edit]

I added an image, a painting of Matthew inspired by an Angel, by Rembrandt. This painting reflects the historical tradition, so important to the Augustinian Hypothesis, at work in Renaissance art.

Augustinian hypothesis → Augustine hypothesis – "Augustinian" refers to the religious order, and "Augustine" is the preferred Wikipedia term Elizium23 (talk) 02:37, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. "Augustinian" does indeed refer to an order, but it is also the standard adjectival form of Augustine's name, as given in Merriam–Webster, American Heritage, Oxford, and Collins. Oppose for the same reason Shakespearean tragedy is not called "Shakespeare tragedy", the Victorian era is not called the "Victoria era", and Davidic line is not called "David line". "Augustine hypothesis" sounds like a hypothesis about Augustine, or else perhaps a hypothesis proposed by Augustus. What is your basis for saying "and 'Augustine' is the preferred Wikipedia term"? — the Man in Question (in question) 03:24, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
