Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Maria Boulding's version is of a different level of excellence from practically anything else on the market. She has perfected an elegant and flowing style." -- Rowan Williams "Archbishop of Canterbury"

"Maria Boulding's translation is clear and crisp. It respects Augustine's language concerning inclusiveness, to my knowledge the first to do so, and uniquely highlights the poetic elements embodied in Augustine's work. I see Boulding's work to be the English translation of The Confessions for years to come." -- Edmund Hill, O.P. "Augustine Scholar"

"It is truly a tour de force. Here is an Augustine as subtle, lively and challenging in the English of our time." -- Dr. Mark Vessey "Professor, Department of English, The University of British Columbia"

Reseña del editor:

"The Confessions" is an all time number one Christian classic -- an extended poetic, passionate, intimate prayer written by St. Augustine because he felt called by God to make this confession. Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury, calls Boulding's translation "a different level of excellence from practically anything else on the market. She has perfected an elegant and flowing style." This 2nd edition includes a long-awaited annotated bibliography.
