Anyone who is familiar with the Loeb Classical Library knows that not only are these typically the best English translations available, they are often the only series to provide the original language along with the English. Here Augustine's Confessions are presented in both Latin and English making this text an indispensable and irreplaceable resource for study of the Confessions.Written between 397 and 401A.D., Augustine's Confessions is one of Christianity's most influential books. Autobiographical in nature, and yet resoundingly and deeply theological, this classic tells the story of Augustine's life of philosophical searching and sin prior to his conversion to Christianity. Along the way Augustine will discuss self-hood, God, conversion, and Creation along with prayers and meditations.
