Saint, Bishop of Hippo Augustine
Hackett Publishing Company, 2007
Beautiful translation of a classic text
Sheed's translation of this classic of Western and Christian culture is truly beautiful. He went beyond presenting an accurate translation; beyond a clear translation. He gave us a translation that is accurate, clear, and sonorous. The footnotes, introductions (one by famous Augustine scholar Peter ...
