Description
"Williams's masterful translation satisfies (at last!) a long-standing need. There are lots of good translations of Augustine's great work, but until now we have been forced to choose between those that strive to replicate in English something of the majesty and beauty of Augustine's Latin style and those that opt instead to convey the careful precision of his philosophical terminology and argumentation. Finally, Williams has succeeded in capturing both sides of Augustineâ?Ts mind in a richly evocative, impeccably reliable, elegantly readable presentation of one of the most impressive achievements in Western thoughtâ?"Augustine's Confessions." â?"Scott MacDonald, Professor of Philosophy and Norma K. Regan Professor in Christian Studies, Cornell University
