Abstract

This article examines the theory of the critic of culture George Steiner on the human textual creations and its relationship with the presence of God. It begins with the Logocentrism, which was part of the Greek philosophy and Judeo-Christian thought (the intelligibility of the universe and the significance of the language which is derived), to reach the deconstruction of Mallarmé, Rimbaud, Sartre or Derrida. Along with Steiner, we propose a poetics of the primary, a direct encounter with human textual creations which favour, in turn, the revelation of the divine imprint which is underlying in every major artistic creation.
