A MÍSTICA TEOPOÉTICA DE CHIARA LUBICH

Abstract

There is a slight connection between mystical and poetry. Both are the result of a talking to what inhabits the deepest of human being. To the poet, his own self; to the mystic, the transcendent. Just for being in this way the poetry, that comes from mystical, brings in its lines and between the lines, adornments full of lights as loving songs to the perfect Love to be addressed for the good of humanity, even if they reflect peculiar experiences either whether in the most distant lands, in the most desert corners, locked inside the cloisters or in the hearts of the crowds, among their peers. These talks, transmuted into verses have the power to extrapolate the bounded spaces of religions in order to penetrate the core of the human beings, without considering their beliefs or disbelieves. So, theology and literature are interdisciplinary entwined based on two aspects: the inspiration and the word that will move towards the Beauty and will become together in the theopoetic that makes bonds between theology and poetry, theology and literature, theology and aesthetics. That is what we want to demonstrate in this article: an inclusive mystical theopoetic by Chiara Lubich, written for everybody, resulting from her personal and continuous talking with the Transcendent – God.
