Aurelius Augustine is one of the Holy Fathers of the Church, the main Christian philosophers of the patristic era. He authored many works that laid the foundations of modern theological science. Born a pagan, Augustine accepted Christian baptism in adulthood as a result of his own deep reflections on the truth and inspiration from above. “Confessions” – the most popular book of St. Augustine – is essentially a lyrical autobiography, depicting the inner development of the saint from infancy to his final establishment in Orthodox Christianity. With psychological introspection, unattainable for ancient literature and philosophy, Augustine was able to show in it the inconsistency of the formation of personality. For fifteen centuries, “Confession” has moved hearts with its sincerity and living witness manner of narrating the complex and joyful path of man to God.
