Summary/Abstract: Theories of images are bound to the diversity of their manifestations and to the plurality of the perspectives adopted on them. Unlike Gilbert Durand, who makes use of an archetypological perspective, we approach the problem of the image from a different perspective: the ontological perspective (the specular image) and the metaphysical perspective (imago Christi). These angles enable us to retrace the connection between the Eastern European intellectual space, especially the one of the Romanian élite, among which we note figures such as Nae Ionescu, Mircea Eliade, Alexandru Dragomir, Mircea Vulcănescu, Andrei Pleşu, and the Occidental space, as represented by Henry Corbin, Roger Caillois, Gaston Bachelard, Gilbert Durand, Michel Maffesoli, Jean-Jacques Wunenburger.
