Ladislaus Boros, Le categorie della temporalità in Sant'Agostino

Abstract : The human life's meaning is explored through four synthetic images of "temporality": dissolution, agony, banishment and night. If the human being finds in the time-dimension an obstacle to accomplish his own essence, one must say that the time-dimension itself is meaningless. St Augustine is convinced the "temporality" is in opposition to the veritable man's aims and is not the way of developing the human personality. Only the God incarnate is capable of bringing together again both the domains of the time-dimension and of the timeless (eternity).
