Today I read Augustine's letters, 1-30.
I also copied and pasted a bunch of Augustine documents from the Web to my computer so I could highlight them in "Da System." (Oh yeah, there's a SYSTEM.)
Some of the language was really, really, excruciatingly painful in the letters, like reading post-modern writers. As you can tell, I really, really want to be reading on my computer when it's so nice outside. =)
I skimmed several of them which did nothing but praise Augustine, but the rest were pretty interesting, dealing with the problems of Anabaptism, Heresy, and Body and Mind, and Understanding and the Imagination.
Tomorrow will be more letters. Hopefully two sets of thirty, which means I'll be able to finish the letters by the end of this week.
That's, uh, perhaps a little too ambitious, but we'll see how I feel.
