ResumoThe sources in which Egidio 's texts of De Ecclesiastica Potestate anchors its roots are multiple. But on this occasion we would like to centre on the constant and crucial quotations from Saint Augustine appearing on Egidio 's works. We believe that on the basis of sorne particular texts but taking a very different point ofview in socio-political and cultural questions, Egidio directs the interpretation of Saint Augustine's work towards horizons quite apart from the Saint's views on the subject and even nonappearing on other writings of Saint Augustine. In fact, Egidio affirms not distinction but the reduction and radical subordination of the temporal power to the spiritual authority.
