Augustine of Hippo is one of the most important thinkers of Western theology and philosophy. His understanding of the self, of sin, of redemption, and of sanctification set the tone for all subsequent theology. Even those who disagree with him must still interact with the effects of his thought. The Loeb Classical Library edition of Select Letters contains 62 of Augustine’s letters, showing the various troubles of Augustine’s time and how the great bishop dealt with them.
The Loeb editions pair the original Latin with a readable but literal translation.
