...I'm still planning to blog through the remaining chapters of Confessions.
But that will be no easy thing. If and when I manage it I might begin a similar exercise on a work that Augustine wrote around the same stage in his life, On Christian Teaching.
Sounds good David. Confessions is definitely tough to get through. The more I'm reading the harder it gets I have to admit! It's great to read it though, and at least get some sort of understanding of it (thanks to your hard work!)
ReplyDeleteI'm not ashamed to admit the final four chapters are really hard going - anyone who says otherwise is either mad or in the top 0.5% (and, let's face it, many of the top 0.5% are mad anyway). So I'm not sure what form my posts will take for Books 10 thro 13.
