The Complete Works of St. Augustine: Confessions, The City of God, On Christian Doctrine, Moral Treatises, Enchiridion (With Letters and Biography)

Saint Augustine is one of the most important Church Fathers. His writings influenced the development of Western philosophy and Christianity. He is recognized as a saint in the Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Lutheran churches, and the Anglican Communion. Additionally, he is a preeminent Doctor of the Church and the patron of the Augustinians. Augustine was one of the most prolific Christian authors, with more than one hundred surviving works. Among his most renowned works are Confessions, a personal account of his earlier life, and The City of God, written to restore the confidence of his fellow Christians after the sack of Rome by the Visigoths in 410. 'On the Trinity', in which he developed the 'psychological analogy' of the Trinity, is considered one of his masterpieces and arguably of more doctrinal importance than Confessions or The City of God. He also authored 'On Free Choice of the Will', addressing why God grants humans free will that can be used for evil. Divided into various sections, this monumental compilation offers insights into Augustine's life, history of the period, his philosophy and reactions to heresy, as well as his influential theological contributions. The collection includes: Biography Early Works: Two Books of Soliloquies On the Profit of Believing On Faith and the Creed On Christian Doctrine Confessions On the Catechising of the Uninstructed On the Trinity Concerning Faith of Things Not Seen Treatises on the Gospel of John Homilies on the First Epistle of John The City of God Enchiridion on Faith, Hope and Love On the Creed: A Sermon to Catechumens Moral Treatises: On Lying Against Lying On the Work of Monks On the Good of Marriage Of Holy Virginity On the Good of Widowhood On Patience On Continence On Care to Be Had for the Dead The Anti-Donatist Writings Anti-Pelagian Writings Teachings: Expositions on the Psalms Our Lord's Sermon on the Mount The Harmony of the Gospels Sermons On the Lord's Prayer Te Deum
