Abstract

Abstract Many critics have called Clarice Lispector a mystic. Lispector, however, was not a religious figure, but rather a 20th-century Brazilian writer who was influenced by both her Jewish background and her Catholic Brazilian context. There are various forms of Jewish and Christian mysticism that reject transcendent union with God and, by referencing them, I elucidate the complexity of Lispector’s mystical fiction. By looking at challenges to mystical union in these traditions, I aim to show the ethical complexity of this concept and how that complexity is deepened through Lispector’s writing as she problematises blurred boundaries between self and Other.
占有与消费:克拉丽斯·利斯佩克特与神秘主义伦理
许多评论家称克拉丽斯·利斯佩克特为神秘主义者。然而,利斯佩克特并不是一位宗教人物,而是一位20世纪的巴西作家,她的犹太背景和巴西天主教背景都对她产生了影响。有各种形式的犹太教和基督教神秘主义拒绝与上帝的超然结合,通过引用它们,我阐明了利斯佩克托神秘小说的复杂性。通过观察这些传统中对神秘结合的挑战,我旨在展示这一概念的伦理复杂性,以及在利斯佩克特的作品中,当她提出自我与他者之间模糊的界限时,这种复杂性是如何加深的。

期刊介绍: Literature and Theology, a quarterly peer-review journal, provides a critical non-confessional forum for both textual analysis and theoretical speculation, encouraging explorations of how religion is embedded in culture. Contributions should address questions pertinent to both literary study and theology broadly understood, and be consistent with the Journal"s overall aim: to engage with and reshape traditional discourses within the studies of literature and religion, and their cognate fields - biblical criticism, literary criticism, philosophy, politics, culture studies, gender studies, artistic theory/practice, and contemporary critical theory/practice.
