　　Augustine's Confessions is arguably the first,and unequivocally the most influential,religious autobiography in the Christian tradition.He writes about faith with the reckless desertion of a lover.His de*ions of friendship are so beautiful that they'll bring tears to your eyes.The book deals with the history of the City of Man ,founded upon love of self,and of the City of God,founded upon love of God and contempt of self.This work is a vast storehouse of the knowledge of the time,and is a monument not onlyto Augustine's great learnign,but also to storehouse of the time,and is a mounument not only to Augustine's great learning,but also to the keenest metaphysical mind of the age.The Imitation of Christ is a classic of Christian devotional literature that has brought understanding and comfort to millions for centuries.With the exception of the Bible,no Christian writing has had so wide a vogue or so sustained a popularity as this.Its structrue owes largely to the writings of the medieval mystics.Its ideas and phrases are a mosaic from the Bible and the Fathers of the early Church.
