This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions. It focuses specifically on his discussion of the temptations caused by the "concupiscence of the flesh" discussed in book 10, which Augustine says that he still has to struggle with to some degree even after his full conversion to Christianity.
