Saint Augustine's contributions to Christian theology are second to no other post-apostolic author in the whole sweep of church history. Yet along side his doctrinal treatises, Augustine tells a story of his life devoted to Christ as his only satisfaction. The Confessions is at once the autobiographical account of Augustine's life of Christian faith and at the same time a compelling theology of Christian spirituality for everyone.

More than 2,000 years later, Plato's Republic remains astonishingly relevant to our everyday lives. It poses one question after another that might well have been drawn from the headlines and debates of our nation's recent history: What sort of person should rule the state? Are all citizens equal before the law? Should everyone have equal access to health care? Plato's greater inquiry, however, was into the question of defining justice itself and the reasons why a person would choose a life aligned with that virtue.

When you think about Christian history, you might think of the first thousand years - the events of Jesus' life, the acts of the apostles, the establishment of the church, and the various councils that established theological doctrine. But the history of Christianity from the Reformation to the present is equally dramatic and profoundly relevant. It's a story about people as much as theology - our cultures, our politics, our relationship to the world.

Far from being a period of decline and fall, late antiquity marked one of history's great turning points.

Story
Revolutions in thought (as opposed to those in politics or science) are in many ways the most far-reaching of all. They affect how we grant legitimacy to authority, define what is possible, create standards of right and wrong, and even view the potential of human life. Between 1600 and 1800, such a revolution of the intellect seized Europe, shaking the minds of the continent as few things before or since. What we now know as the Enlightenment challenged previously accepted ways of understanding reality, bringing about modern science, representative democracy, and a wave of wars, sparking what Professor Kors calls "perhaps the most profound transformation of European, if not human, life." In this series of 24 insightful lectures, you'll explore the astonishing conceptual and cultural revolution of the Enlightenment. You'll witness in its tumultuous history the birth of modern thought in the dilemmas, debates, and extraordinary works of the 17th- and 18th-century mind, as wielded by the likes of thinkers like Bacon, Descartes, Hobbes, Pascal, Newton, Locke, Hume, Voltaire, Diderot, and Rousseau.And you'll understand why educated Europeans came to believe that they had a new understanding-of thought and the human mind, of method, of nature, and of the uses of knowledge-with which they could come to know the world correctly for the first time in human history, and with which they could rewrite the possibilities of human life.

Step back to a time when the mysteries of the universe could seem overwhelming.

In the region surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, people responded to such tumult with a rich variety of religious beliefs.

Publisher's Summary
How should parents raise children, and how should schools educate children? Why are we attracted to things that are forbidden? What is time? How can we understand God, or the nature of evil? What is true friendship? To answer these questions, Professors Cook and Herzman look to the Confessions of St. Augustine of Hippo.
Over the course of 24 fascinating lectures, you'll study this great book's staggering influence on Christianity and Western civilization, seeing how it provided a source of inspiration for such noted thinkers and writers as Petrarch, Dante, and Martin Luther. Even though the Confessions is more than 1,500 years old, it still speaks to us and has the capacity to change our lives.
The professors trace the narrative of Augustine's early life and the key events that led to his Christian conversion at age 31. In a succession of stories that are as powerful as any in world literature, Augustine seeks to understand the same issues in his life that many people try to understand in theirs, arriving at profound conclusions that offer stunning insight into our psychology and morality and challenge us to become wiser and better people.
This course is a superb springboard and companion guide to your reading and rereading of one of history's singular books: one that will challenge and stimulate your mind and provide a framework through which to find true understanding, value, and meaning in your life.

An Excellent Overview!
I listened to this alongside an audible edition of Augustine's Confessions in preparation for teaching this text at the undergraduate level. I was a bit worried about the team teaching approach at first, as both Herzman and Cook interject on each lecture, but I found they did a marvelous job of bouncing thoughts off of each other and furthering discussion. I have listened to five or so "Great Courses" on audible and this has been my favorite thus far.

Highly Recommended!!
Firstly I need to disagree with one of the other reviewers regarding having two people give the lecture. Of course this is personal preference, but Herzman and Cook make a great "tag team". It breaks up what could be monotony with different voices, comments, to some extent style, and yet it does not - in my opinion - break up the compelling flow of the narrative.
The voices are clear and easily understandable, and most importantly, this is a true lecture, not someone reading a book. It is dynamic, has the odd pauses and corrections (the wrong word is said and it is then corrected), making it "real".
Their insights into Augustine are hugely interesting. I had read the Confessions and had to say I was not understanding what all the fuss was about. However, with the insights provided here, I will go back and re-read. And, it is a great price. I have the monthly subscription with Audible and this lecture was one credit.
Five out of five, ten out of ten.

Perfect for the Self-Motivated Learner for Life
Where does St. Augustine's Confessions rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This stands unique from my other audible purchases in that it serves as a companion to the text(I bought the Oxford classic from amazon). It is a fantastic companion which has enriched a work that is nearly peerless in it's original capacity to enrich.
Who was your favorite character and why?
From Algerian farm to the imperial court of Milan, from nobody to the dominant thinker of the world's dominant religion-a Bishop then fully respected and accepted by the secular philisophical community so 1600 years later. The force of St. Augustine's words has run relentlessly with no end in site. An intellectual Gladiator, only more grand and more important than any arena spectacle.
Which scene was your favorite?
The lecturers pop with energy, seem genuinely inspired by each other, and I could not help but catch their enthusiasm.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The beauty of his writings concerning his time of conversion is not lost on those reading for more secular or generally spiritual reasons. Fantastic, moving.

Outstanding Lectures Bring So Much to Light
What made the experience of listening to St. Augustine's Confessions the most enjoyable?
I was skeptical at first whether having two lecturers would work well. Fortunately Prof. Herzman and Prof. Cook complemented each other perfectly. One could tell there were a few places where their views differed a bit, but they these tensions were used to increase understanding, as opposed to confuse the issue. The lectures were pithy, well organized, and communicated A LOT of information. Relative to other "Great Courses" lectures to which I have listened, I think this series held more information per lecture than most.
What did you like best about this story?
Well, this question is a bit odd when the "story" is a lecture series about a book, but I was very appreciative of the effort the lecturers spent in clearly explaining the social context of Augustine's writing and the significance the material had not only within Augustine's _Confessions_ but in a broader perspective. Their personal examples illustrating how they experience similar events/thoughts/feelings helped me connect to Augustine's writing and made my response to the material that much stronger.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The section dealing with addiction and compulsion was very strong. The lecturers did A TERRIFIC JOB talking about the addictions to alcohol, sex, and violence of Augustine's mother, Augustine himself, and Augustine's friend, and illustrating Augustine's attitude towards explaining such addictions and overcoming them. As a father, I also found the sections discussing Books 1 through 3 really moving. Augustine is right about the need to train children properly, and the lecturers did an excellent job identifying and explaining his ideas.

Good overview , wish it probed certain issues nore
It does a very good job of providing an overview of what is in the book and the big issues it deals with, but does not provide a scholarly analysis of key issues. For example, you know that Augustine melded Christianity and Platonism, but you don't really get what the Platonic ideas where or how exactly Augustine understood them, or the sources he read to get these. Instead, the lectures take much time translating everything Augustine said into simple anecdotes within their own lives. In my opinion, that time would have been better spent diving into the intellectual details of some key issues. That said, is is a worthwhile overview foe someone curious about the basics is the book. The end is good.

Professors Herzman and Cook are the dynamic duo of historical Christian teaching and their lecture series are always the best. Their course on St. Francis of Assisi was my absolute favorite of all the Great Courses, but this one what's especially valuable to me since I struggled to understand Saint Augustine's confessions when I try to read it years ago. Educational, interesting, and enlightening in many ways for nerdy, less-indoctrinated seekers like me! (-:

This one in particular is most inspiring. St. Augustine's thought was so honest and rich. And his questions and methods are interesting to think about. Would love to read the Confessions and come back to this lecture.
