The second volume of the Confessions was published for the first time in 1962, the second edition (with addenda and corrigenda) published in 1992, was reprinted identically in 1996. Books VIII to XIII of Augustine’s masterpiece lead us from the conversion of the narrator-author (in the famous scene in the garden of Milan) to the exegesis of the first chapters of Genesis, in books XI to XIII, devoted to the account of creation. This volume contains the famous developments on memory and time. In addition to regular readers of Augustine, it is for readers interested in ancient literature and philosophy, religious history, and biblical exegesis.
This reprint is distinguished from the previous ones by a Bibliographic Supplement established by a specialist on Augustine, Anne-Isabelle Bouton-Touboulic.
