description The article shows the most characteristic elements of the teaching of St. Augustine on the subject of amor sapientiae. It represents a synthetic analysis, based on statements from the whole life of a thinker from Thagaste. At the same time, this work sketches the main features of the Augustinian spiritual itinerary. Augustine was deeply convinced that God’s providence not only brought him to philospophie portus, but also ignited the soul with a great love of wisdom. At the beginning of Augustin’s love of wisdom, Cicero Hortensius, read in the nineteenth year of age, stands. While amor sapientiae introduced Augustine first to the land of philosophy, so from the moment of conversion and baptism, his search for wisdom will be based mainly on the seriousness of the Holy Scripture and the authority of the Church’s faith. Hence the Augustinian amor sapientiae has a philosophical, theological and mystical dimension. Just as wisdom is for St. Augustine knows human and divine matters, intellectual knowledge of eternal matters, the highest light or truth, so also the path leads to her through knowledge and love. The culmination of the Augustinian search for wisdom is to reach God himself, the Wisdom who is the Son of God incarnate, Jesus Christ. Like the great thinker with Samos Pythagoras, the thinker with Thagase Augustine is fully entitled to the title of lover of wisdom (amateur sapientiae).
