Summary Note
"Augustine's Confessions and Contemporary Concerns takes each of the thirteen books of Augustine's classic omnibiography to see how the major themes contained therein still speak to each of us today. The Bishop of Hippo never intended that the audience for his work be limited to himself and his contemporaries. He wrote on the perennial themes of childhood, humanity's search for meaning, the relationship between religion and science, and the nature of Christian conversion, as well as the philosophical implications of time, embodiment, of reading rightly, and many other longings that will always be found in the restless heart. Accordingly, scholars expert in Augustine came together to ask what each book of his Confessions offer for the modern mind. This commentary on the Confessions opens with John Martens on infancy and human growth (Book 1), David Vincent Meconi, SJ, on sin as self-sabotage (Book 2), Jeffrey Lehman on Augustine's understanding of presence and love (Book 3), Augustine's aesthetics as explained by Erika Kidd (Book 4), Christopher J. Thompson on the importance of identity and inclusivity (Book 5), and the Dominican Andrew Hofer on Augustinian anxiety (Book 6), before Gerald Boersma explains the limits of vision when trying to "see" God (Book 7).
