La decouverte d’une lettre dans laquelle Augustin declare s’etre delecte a la lecture de textes d’Ambroise sur les martyrs, a relance une question negligee par la critique moderne, qui n’a jamais considere l’eveque milanais comme un hagiographe. Le Moyen-Age, cependant, lui imputait plusieurs celebres Passions de martyrs. Analysant tous les ecrits, authentiques ou non, a la base de ces attributions, le present ouvrage entend remonter aux sources tardo-antiques de cette reputation d’hagiographe dont Augustin fut un temoin privilegie.
