CLASS 1562
FWS: Augustine's Confessions

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2014-2015.

The Confessions is an autobiographical account of Augustine's discovery of god through his reading of philosophical texts and, eventually, the Bible.  But since he regards his own story as an example of ordinary human development, he uses it as a way of thinking about human nature in general.  This allows him to analyze some fundamental problems in life – sin, friendship, emotions, sex, faith and the existence of god – through his narrative.

When Offered Spring.
