The aim of this paper is to propose a structural comparison between the philosophy of Giordano Bruno and that of Schelling, in order to bring to light what separates them in spite of an identical metaphysical decision, i.e. what we call the modal saturation (the immediate identity of possibility and effectivity). Philosopher of finitude and philosopher of eternity, these two thinkers represent two metaphysics of mobility: one who thinks of the very phenomenality as moving, and the other who conceives an eternal imaginal mobility as life of God, mobility which on its own allows thinking the relation between identity and multiplicity. These two metaphysics imply two different anthropologies which both depend on the status offered to phenomenality.
