Le mysticisme du livre
The mysticism of the book

Summary/Abstract: The work is based on the idea that literature is less than her own myth, very active in the last few decades in elitist circles. When Borges wrote the Babel Library, he prefigured an important direction in literary criticism, much more seductive than the discourse analysis and formal hermeneutics. It is the mitologisation of literature, as a superior and unique space for the being. It was born, therefore, in the same era of discourse analysis – a mysticism of the book. The work calls into question the representative positions of Harold Bloom and Toma Pavel to identify their limits and the inability to logically legitimize a mysticism of the book. The argument wants to show that the mysticism of the book is a false mystique and a game of religion, extremely sophisticated but very careful with the stubborn arrogance of the hermeneutic.
