Augustine's philosophy of life involves mediation, reviewing one's past and exercises for self-improvement. Centuries after Plato and before Freud he invented a 'spiritual exercise' in which every man and woman is able, through memory, to reconstruct and reinterpret life's aims. In this 2010 book, Brian Stock examines Augustine's unique way of blending literary and philosophical themes. He proposes a new interpretation of Augustine's early writings, establishing how the philosophical soliloquy (soliloquium) has emerged as a mode of inquiry and how it relates to problems of self-existence and self-history. The book also provides clear analysis of inner dialogue and discourse and how, as inner dialogue complements and finally replaces outer dialogue, a style of thinking emerges, arising from ancient sources and a religious attitude indebted to Judeo-Christian tradition.

Narrow-mindedness, dogmatism, intolerance, fanaticism are, to varying degrees, forms of confinement in a mental schema. To escape it, one must gain access to "interpretive plurality": to become capable of "manipulating" one's own representations and ideas to adopt, at least temporarily and in imagination, points of view other than one's own. But what are the cerebral and mental bases of such a capacity in children and adults? Through what historical forms - cultural, religious, artistic - has it embodied and developed? Can it be taught to children, and how? Organized on June 12 and 13, 2008 at the Collège de France, the colloquium La plurality interpretative. Historical and cognitive foundations of the concept of point of view attempted to take stock of these issues.
