The bishop of Hippo and towering theologian of the early church, whose Confessions and City of God shaped Western Christianity more than any thinker after Paul. His searching account of his own conversion and his profound reflections on sin, grace, time, and the soul have made him a foundational figure for both Catholic and Protestant thought.
