The Confessions of Saint Augustine is a classic spiritual autobiography written by the influential Christian theologian and philosopher Augustine of Hippo. In this book, Augustine reflects on his life and spiritual journey, exploring his early years as a wayward youth, his conversion to Christianity, and his subsequent struggles with sin and temptation.The book is divided into 13 chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Augustine's life and spiritual development. Throughout the book, Augustine grapples with deep questions about the nature of God, the meaning of life, and the struggle between good and evil.The Confessions of Saint Augustine is widely regarded as one of the most important works of Christian literature, and has had a profound impact on the development of Western thought and culture. This edition of the book is edited by Edward Bouverie Pusey, a prominent 19th-century theologian and scholar of Christian history.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.
