      Augustine's journey with language is central to his Confessions, highlighting his evolution from a gifted orator to a Christian thinker. Philip Burton delves into Augustine's childhood language acquisition, his rise as a prominent rhetoric professor, and his eventual disillusionment with the secular rhetoric of his career. Rediscovering his Christian faith, Augustine transforms into a commentator on Scripture and a preacher, reflecting a profound shift in his professional identity and intellectual pursuits. This exploration underscores the interplay between language, faith, and personal reinvention.
