description: The Teacher (Introduction by Russell)The Free Choice of the Will (Introduction by Russell)Retractions, Book 1, Chapter 9, concerning "The Free Choice of the Will")Grace and Free Will (Introduction by Russell)General Index (Russell)Index of Holy Scripture (Russell)All of the works are translated by Robert P. Russell, who also wrote a short introduction to each, provided footnotes, and added the two indices. The introductions mostly serve to indicate when and for what purpose the work was written, generally based on Augustine's own comments in his "Retractions", and also the historical significance of the work. Augustine seldom needs an interpreter, and interpretive commentary is therefore brief. The abundant footnotes concern translation issues, scripture references, other references (both to other authors' and Augustine's own works), and occasionally points of interpretation.
