| Summary: | Noticeable in Augustine is a great geographic instability as long as he remains unconverted. Each stage of his itinerary corresponds to a change of place, up to his arrival in Milan, the place of his encounter with Ambrose, then his baptism. Having found his spiritual place, he then returns to Africa which he will not leave again. From these places where he feels confined, Augustine tries to escape, first by dreams (Dido, the spectacles, etc.), then by mystical aspirations. His conversion allows him to enter another world, because his outlook, as well as his relationships with others and himself, has changed. RésuméOn observe, chez Augustin, une grande instabilité géographique tant qu’il n’est pas converti. Chaque étape de son itinéraire correspond à un changement de lieu, jusqu’à son arrivée à Milan, lieu de sa rencontre avec Ambroise, puis de son baptême. Ayant trouvé son lieu spirituel, il rentre alors en Afrique qu’il ne quittera plus. De ces lieux où il se sent « enfermé », Augustin tente de s’échapper d’abord par le rêve (Didon, les spectacles, etc.), puis par les aspirations mystiques. Sa conversion lui permet d’entrer dans un autre monde, parce que son regard, aussi bien que ses rapports avec autrui et lui-même, ont changé. |
