Macrobe (Flavius Macrobius Ambrosius Theodosius) est un écrivain, philosophe et philologue latin, auteur des Saturnales, et du Commentaire au Songe de Scipion. Il est né vers 370 à Sicca en Numidie (Afrique). C'est avec saint Augustin et Cassiodore l'un des « passeurs de témoin » à la fin de l'Antiquité romaine, notamment en ce qui concerne la question de l'âme.
