Margaret R. Miles
Emerita Professor of Historical Theology

In “Augustine and the Fundamentalist’s Daughter,” Margaret Miles weaves her memoirs together with reflections on Augustine’s Confessions. Having read and re-read the Confessions for 35 years, Miles brings her memories of childhood and youth in a fundamentalist home into conversation with Augustine’s efforts to understand his life, resulting in mutually illuminating autobiographical and theological reflection.
