Written primarily in Latin, 1981/1993 edition.

This volume presents the Latin text of one of the great classics of Christian literature, concerned with one human life as an example of what it is to be human and in search of God. The commentary, which can be used by those new to Augustine and his world, concentrates on his brilliant Latin and on his theology and philosophy.

A critical appreciation of the work of Derek Walcott's Caribbean phase (1946-81). It examines Walcott's use of metaphor, by which he focuses on the juxtaposition of his concern with a regional history of negation and his immersion in the Western literary and cultural tradition of the colonizer.
