This article offers a rudimentary analysis of selected texts by Augustine in order to explore the semantic richness of the word persona (“person”). It examines three key dimensions of perception in the works of the eminent ancient thinker from Tagaste ‒ Bishop of Hippo: persona in the socio-anthropological context, persona in Christological discourse, and persona in Trinitarian discourse. The conclusion highlights the importance of Augustine’s theological thought for contemporary reflections on the person called to life by Love and for love.
