"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 Augustine's mind in a richly evocative,
impeccably reliable, elegantly readable presentation of one of the
most impressive achievements in Western thought-Augustine's
Confessions." -Scott MacDonald, Professor of Philosophy and Norma
K. Regan Professor in Christian Studies, Cornell University
