Second volume of the long-awaited translation of one of Augustines
classics and a great work in Christian literature. Newly translated
by Maria Boulding, O.S.B., whose masterful translation of
Augustines Confessions in the same series has been praised as being
of a different level of excellence from practically anything else
in the market (Bishop Rowan Williams, Monmouth, England). As the
psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of
the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. They
recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustines personal life,
his theological reflections, and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of
Hippo.

Essential Expositions of the Psalms is a collection distilled from
the 6-volume set in the Works of Saint Augustine. As the psalms are
a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms
can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of
Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the
theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of
human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the
work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the
experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological
reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo.
The prayers featured in Augustine's classic Confessions, compiled
and featured thematically.
Soliloquies is a work from Augustine's early life, shortly after
his conversion, in which are visible all the seeds contained in his
future writings. Here we see Augustine as a philosopher, a thinker
and a budding theologian.
