The attachment 'aquilina.pdf' is about the short summary of Augustine's life and the main story refers to the other attachment.
1. The pear story in the first of the two chapters has received a lot of attention throughout the last 1,600 years. Write a paragraph about the pear story and the possible reasons Augustine gives for his actions.
Your paragraph must include some discussion of Augustine's point that he would probably not have stolen the pears if he had been walking by himself.
Conclude your paragraph with a sentence or two about how the story is actually about more than just pears (it's trying to make larger points!)
2. Augustine eventually becomes a devoted Christian in a dramatic fashion at the end of the 2nd chapter that you'll read. But a series of conversations and events in that chapter lead him to that dramatic scene in his garden near the end.
Write a paragraph that highlights the importance of 2 of these conversations/events for getting Augustine ready for the final scenes in the chapter.
In other words, tell me why his final conversion was actually building on things that had happened during the time leading up to the conversion scene.
