Beskrivelse af The Confessions Of Saint Augustine
The Confessions of Saint Augustine is a spiritual autobiography written by the Christian theologian and philosopher, Saint Augustine of Hippo, in the 4th century AD. The book is considered one of the most important works in Western literature and has influenced countless writers and thinkers throughout history. In this book, Augustine recounts his life from his childhood in North Africa to his conversion to Christianity and his subsequent rise to prominence as a bishop and theologian. He explores his struggles with sin and his quest for spiritual enlightenment, offering insights into the nature of God, the human condition, and the meaning of life. The Confessions of Saint Augustine is a deeply personal and introspective work that has inspired readers for centuries with its profound insights and poetic language. This edition of the book is translated and edited by Edward Bouverie Pusey, a prominent Anglican theologian and scholar of the 19th century.But woe is thee, thou torrent of human custom! Who shall stand against thee? how long shalt thou not be dried up? how long roll the sons of Eve into that huge and hideous ocean, which even they scarcely overpass who climb the cross? Did not I read in thee of Jove the thunderer and the adulterer? both, doubtless, he could not be; but so the feigned thunder might countenance and pander to real adultery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
