Résumé
The project undertaken by Augustine is particularly innovative insofar as it puts forth the “ I ” of the author when the literary context was not open to it. Augustine very much inspired those who followed his literary path and created new codes that were later used by other authors. Yet, Augustine’s goals seem to be radically different from his heirs’ and as such, it appears crucial to seek to understand Augustine’s specificity by analysing the ambivalence of his work – which can be understood as autobiographical – and by confronting it to the very works he inspired.
