Hardback. "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. Num Pages: 176 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HRC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 3895 x 5830 x 15. Weight in Grams: 389.
