  • Language in the Confessions of Augustine. Oxford University Press, 2009. 216p. Paperback. The relative value of the work lies in the detailed information about a specific number of issues, especially statistics on word usage and comparisons with classical works... also demonstrates the rich and nuanced nature of Augustine's prose and how carefully it has to be read in order to discover all the meanings embedded in the text... Any detailed interpretation of passages that contain some of the words and concepts examined by Burton may benefit by taking into account the insights from his book.
