German philosopher Johann Georg Hamann, destitute and depressed in London in 1758, bought a King James Bible on impulse. Within a month of reading it cover to cover, he was convicted of his sin and converted to Christ. His reading inspired him to write meditations on the entire Bible and reexamine the course of his life. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these \u003ci\u003eWritings\u003c\/i\u003e, Hamann reflects on his life, the Scriptures, and faith. A combination of autobiography, philosophy, theology, and biblical exegesis, Hamann's work has been compared to Augustine's \u003ci\u003eConfessions\u003c\/i\u003e. Translated into English for the first time by John W. Kleinig, \u003ci\u003eThe Complete London Writings\u003c\/i\u003e bring Hamann's thought to a new audience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohann Georg Hamann\u003c\/b\u003e (1730-1788) was a German Lutheran philosopher and an influential figure in post-Kantian philosophy, particularly for his critique of Enlightenment rationalism and his thought on the complexity of humanity and faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn W.
