Summary/Abstract: Unique and yet similar to all, the portrait of the medieval man is lost and found in the Christian collective subject. The originality is reduced to the dimensions of an individual identity trajectory, bordered by the traps of heretical thinking. From self -defining by imitatio dei, by imitating the models provided by the agiographic literature or by "visiting" the known philosophical families, to the self defining self -defining, the road is marked by the meeting with the classical philosophy and by the redemption of curiosity towards antiquity. In Christian philosophy, the monotropy was defined as an individual connection between the believer and God the imitation of Christ being synonymous with self-defining as an individual in the image and likeness of God, with the self-understanding of anthropogenesis Kata Eikon. The monotropia has the meaning of living aimed at the closer to God. Monotropos (unus mos) is the "inhabited" self -lived and Christ: "And in itself nothing remains but the one who dwells in Him, that is, Christ, who does not receive to dwell in someone, until he is alone."
