Synopsis "Confessions (in English)"
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.
