AB - Augustine is the founding father of medieval philosophy, while René Descartes laid the foundation of modern philosophy. This paper aims to clarify the concept of love for Augustine and Descartes. Although both thinkers are concerned with the idea of love, they understand it in their intellectual frameworks. For Augustine, love is understood within the Christian ontological order, in which God is to be enjoyed, while the creature is to be used. On the contrary, for Descartes, love is a passion that is to be controlled by the human soul. This difference is reflective of the transition from medieval Christian ontology to modern philosophy of subject.
