The paper deals with time in Augustine’s Confessions, both from a literary point of view, as a topic of his narrative (which is to be compared with Seneca’s Epistulae), and a narratological one, as an « instance narrative » (G. Genette). Augustine’s insisted interest in metaliterary aspects of his Confessions induces us to regard them as a prototype of the reflection on « littérarité » (M. Marghescou).
Il contributo studia il tempo nelle Confessioni sia da un punto di vista letterario, in quanto oggetto della narrazione e in confronto col modello senecano, sia da un punto di vista narratologico, come istanza narrativa (G. Genette). Il frequente ritornare di Agostino sopra gli aspetti metaletterari delle sue Confessioni ci spinge a considerarle un modello antico di riflessione sulla « littérarité » (M. Marghescou).

Abstract
The paper deals with time in Augustine’s Confessions, both from a literary point of view, as a topic of his narrative (which is to be compared with Seneca’s Epistulae), and a narratological one, as an « instance narrative » (G. Genette). Augustine’s insisted interest in metaliterary aspects of his Confessions induces us to regard them as a prototype of the reflection on « littérarité » (M. Marghescou).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
