Ecole Glossary: Pelagius
Pelagius was assumed to be a Briton who, arriving in Rome in the 380's, attacked the moral laxness of the church. He came into conflict with Augustine for his view that human nature is inherently good and man's will is totally free.

Enlightenment
Pelagianism emphasizes human free will as the decisive element in human perfectibility and minimizes or denies the need for divine grace and redemption.
