Abstract

In this article, we aim to focus on the themes of Love and Memory, through which Augustine seeks to reach God, addressed, mainly, in Book X of the Confessions, themes of great relevance in scientific and philosophical production until today . At first, we deal with love in its different forms, as well as its relationship with Platonic theories and psychoanalysis, also translating into the idea of ​​desire and lack. We move foward to examine the soul as a constituent part of being and its connection to memory, recognized through the author's self-knowledge process. The study of the referred memory occurs through the metaphors presented by Augustine, being relevant, later, for the deepening of issues such as temporality and Happy Life. Finally, we discuss the voluptuousness of the senses, which dialogue, once again, with the theme of love.
