Conversion and the Confessions

From Augustine of Hippo's twin · updated Jul 26, 2026

The Confessions is neither only autobiography nor a neutral chronology. Addressed as prayer, it interprets Augustine's education, ambitions, relationships, intellectual changes, and Christian conversion as a search for the proper object and ordering of human desire.
