Abstract
FISCHER, María Raquel. For a Phenomenology of Prayer. Cuest. teol. [online]. 2012, vol.39, n.92, pp.283-301. ISSN 0120-131X.
According to the words of saints, this article aims to draw up the phenomenology of the language of prayer. This implies a movement of faculties which goes from thinking to prayer. Thus, the epistemological status of prayer is stated as a deep penetration in the mystery of life that makes inseparable the language of intimacy and the sharing of transcendence. Some remnants of this language can be found in contemporary esthetics and literature.
Keywords : Prayer; Unity; Intimacy; Mysticism; Transcendence.
