Summary/Abstract: Throughout the centuries, the search for God has been performed in two different gnoseological registers: the former has included concepts and logics; the latter has resorted to miracle, faith and revelation. There were several attempts, both in theology and philosophy, to find a complementarity between the two. The present study investigates the way in which the Romanian poet Şt. Aug. Doinaş succeeds in finding this complementarity, in a volume of religious poetry, namely “Psalms,” published in 1997. In his poems, the poet seeks God in every element of the phenomenal world and in the epiphanies the sacred books directly reveal to him.
