Seducing Augustine: Bodies, Desires, Confessions

by VirginiaBurrus (Author), KarmenMacKendrick (Author), Mark D . Jordan (Author)

Synopsis

"Augustine's Confessions" is a text that seduces. But how often do its readers respond in kind? In this book, three scholars who share a long-standing fascination with sexuality and Christian discourse attempt just that. It also offers a multivocal literary-philosophical meditation on the seductive elusiveness of desire, bodies, language, and God.
