This paper analyzes the discursive procedures concerning the relationship between myth and philosophy in Augustinian thought on the Judaic condition in Early Middle Ages. Some semantic issues and the reach of mythical thought on the so-called post-nicene "philosophical behavior" will be debated, showing the considerable proximities between the two areas of human existence. Throughout the new meanings of literary practices established during the fourth and the fifth centuries, the Augustinian writings reveal that from then on myth and philosophy make up, together, the identitary universe built by classical patristics, which can be defined through concepts regarding divinity, History or the being.
