Description from the seller

Rare edition of this major work of the Christian tradition where the bishop of Hippo recounts his spiritual journey, his intellectual and moral wanderings, and his definitive conversion to Christianity.

The Augustinian narrative, blending autobiography, theological meditation, and prayer, depicts the quest for truth, the struggle against the seductions of Manichaeism and Neoplatonism, and the overwhelming experience of divine grace.

Good condition of the binding, book in its original full brown leather, showing signs of use, missing upper cap, rounded corners, cracked hinges, red edges, spine with nerves, gilded titling.

Good interior condition, scattered foxing, culs-de-lampe, work enriched with a superb frontispiece illustration at the title page.
