The Confessions of St. Augustine of Hippo is among the greatest of great books -- among the five you would want if you were stranded on a desert island.

This course examines all 13 books, or chapters, of this masterpiece that inspired Dante and Martin Luther and encouraged Christianity to accept the thinking of Plato. It provides the background needed to understand the Confessions as Augustine intended, and it analyzes his account -- told in stories that are powerful as any in world literature -- of the events leading to this Christian conversion.

These lectures offer an absorbing encounter with one of history's singular geniuses and provide a superb companion guide to your own reading of the Confessions.
