• Resumen

  • In the De ciuitate Dei, political work par excellence, Augustine includes an extensive reflection on the relationship between the passions and virtues of the soul, by the way, its purpose is to address the question of what makes man happy. He runs paradigmatically, it seems to me, as a moral and political theologian, when he tells of a particular passion of the ancient Roman character: that is, of the passion of glory. This paper tries to show that Augustine establishes a separation between the passion for human glory and the passion to the glory of eternal life. Which implies that the passion of glory has a great theological-political density.
