Writing in the latter half of the 4th century, St. Augustine provides the reader with an intimate view into his own troubled past, conversion, and understanding of human nature and the Trinity. It is difficult to overestimate the significance of The Confessions of St. Augustine. Perhaps the first example of an autobiography in the Western world, Saint Augustine's analysis and account of his own life has had an immeasurable influence on Western literature, Christian theology, and our understanding of life and society in the Middle Ages-and today.
Confessions is a classic spiritual autobiography written by Saint Augustine, one of the most influential figures in the history of Christianity. In this book, Augustine shares his personal journey of faith, from his early years as a pagan to his conversion to Christianity and eventual ordination as a bishop. The book is divided into 13 chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Augustine's life and spiritual journey. He reflects on his childhood and education, his struggles with sin and temptation, his search for truth and meaning, and his encounters with other influential thinkers and religious leaders of his time. Throughout the book, Augustine grapples with some of the most fundamental questions of human existence, such as the nature of God, the problem of evil, and the purpose of life. He also shares his insights into the nature of love, the role of grace in salvation, and the importance of humility and self-awareness in the spiritual life. Written in a deeply personal and introspective style, Confessions is a powerful and moving testament to the transformative power of faith and the enduring relevance of Augustine's teachings for contemporary readers. It is considered one of the greatest works of Christian literature and has been widely read and studied for centuries.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1871 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Augustine's Confessions is one of the most influential and most innovative works of Latin literature. Written in the author's early forties in the last years of the fourth century A.D. and during his first years as a bishop, they reflect on his life and on the activity of remembering and interpreting a life.Retelling the story of his long struggle with faith and ultimate conversion-the first such spiritual memoir ever recorded-Saint Augustine traces a story of sin, regret, and redemption that is both deeply personal and, at the same time, universal.Starting with his early life, education, and youthful indiscretions, and following his ascent to influence as a teacher of rhetoric in Hippo, Rome, and Milan, Augustine is brutally honest about his proud and ambitious youth. In time, his early loves grow cold and the luster of worldly success fades, leaving him filled with a sense of inner absence, until a movement toward Christian faith takes hold, eventually leading to conversion and the flourishing of a new life. Philosophically and theologically brilliant, sincere in its feeling, and both grounded in history and strikingly contemporary in its resonance. Heartfelt, incisive, and timeless, The Confessions of Saint Augustine has captivated readers for more than fifteen hundred years. The Confessions of Saint Augustine is a timeless classic that will persist as long as humanity continues to long for meaning in life and peace of soul.
The work outlines Saint Augustine's sinful youth and his conversion to Christianity. Modern English translations of it are sometimes published under the title The Confessions of Saint Augustine in order to distinguish the book from other books with similar titles. Its original title was Confessions in Thirteen Books, and it was composed to be read out loud with each book being a complete unit. Confessions is generally considered one of Augustine's most important texts. It is widely seen as the first Western Christian autobiography ever written (Ovid had invented the genre at the start of the first century AD with his Tristia) and was an influential model for Christian writers throughout the Middle Ages. Henry Chadwick wrote that Confessions will "always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature".
