Sažetak

The interpretation of the Holy Spirit as the interpersonal and mutual love between Father and Son belongs to the basic inheritance of the western pneumatology, founded by Augustine since he associated two different lines of thought: the biblical – dynamic, and the metaphysical – static. Therefore, he is named “the great pneumatologist of the West”, and this is the principal interest of this article. Augustine’s pneumatology is a soteriological concretization of his Trinitarian teaching. His teaching about the Holy Spirit is inter-trinitarian and thus inseparably linked to his understanding of the Church and the grace. Therefore, the Church and Christian existence by Augustine are understood christologicaly, and moreover linked in the Trinitarian mystery of God itself by Augustine’s pneumatology. Understanding the Holy Spirit as Caritas, Donum and Communio of Father and Son, elucidates the functions of the Holy Spirit in the history of salvation.
