In the Confessions, Augustine proves himself to be an extraordinarily perceptive student of loss. Among the philosophers of late antiquity, he is perhaps the only one who thinks of grief as one of wisdom’s most compelling expressions. All of grief is about letting go, and yet no two griefs are alike. In the wake of his baptism (the beginning of a new life), he loses his mother (Monica), his best friend (Nebridius), and his son (Adeodatus). And then there is the howling grief of conf. 4, where Augustine mourns a childhood friend and, by extension, childhood itself. The webinar follows Augustine down pathways of loss, where he miraculously comes to remember a love that has never abandoned him, a love that is woven into his very origins.
