Summary

Great art Thou, O Lord, and greatly to be praised; great is Thy power, and Thy wisdom infinite. And Thee would man praise; man, but a particle of Thy creation; man, that bears about him his mortality, the witness of his sin, the witness that Thou resistest the proud: yet would man praise Thee; he, but a particle of Thy creation. Thou awakest us to delight in Thy praise; for Thou madest us for Thyself, and our heart is restless, until it repose in Thee.

Reader reviews for The Confessions (Dodo Press)

From the publisher

Aurelius Augustinus, Augustine of Hippo, or Saint Augustine (354 - 430 AD) was one of the most important figures in the development of Western Christianity. His works - including The Confessions, which is often called the first Western autobiography - are still read around the world today. Written between 397 and 398 AD, The Confessions tells of his sinful youth, how, in Carthage he developed a relationship with a young woman who would be his concubine for over fifteen years, with whom he had a son, and how he later converted to Christianity. The book details his spiritual journey and provides an unbroken record of his evolution of thought and is a significant theological work.
