Les rapports entre littérature et mysticisme sont amples et largement partagés par diverses religions et cultures. La tradition d’interprétation du mysticisme et de ces rapports relève de bien des paradigmes. L’oeuvre de Michel de Certeau a renouvelé l’approche du mysticisme et de ses caractérisations symboliques et sociales. Elle est ici le fil rouge qui permet de lire les rapports entre mysticisme et littérature dans une perspective théorique et dans des contextes européens, africains, américains et asiatiques – des mystiques indiens à Hawthorne, de Teilhard de Chardin aux écrivains maghrébins contemporains et à Senghor, de la tradition mystico-littéraire du XIXe siècle aux liens de la théorie littéraire et du mysticisme.The connection between mysticism and literature is both apparent and largely shared by various religions and cultures. The tradition of interpreting mysticism within its various contexts brings into play several paradigms, since the work of Michel de Certeau initiated a renewed interest in the manner in which we look at mysticism and its social and symbolic forms. De Certeau’s work provides the connecting thread to the present study, allowing us to read mysticism and literature through a theoretical lens in the essays collected here which deal with European, African, American and Asian texts, from Indian mysticism to Nathaniel Hawthorne, from Teilhard de Chardin to Senghor and contemporary authors from the Maghreb, from the nineteenth-century tradition of literary discussions on mysticism to similarities one can find between its discourse and that of contemporary literary theory.
