I will analyze in this article how José Ángel Valente uses the mystical modus dicendi to explain his own Poetics. I will do it by studying different essays by the author, looking for the systematicity of his thought. In the first place, I will focus on what Valente understood by “mysticim” from the point of view of his poetic writing. On the Secondly place, I will study his Poetics in order to analyze the rhetoric of his essays and to analyze his use of a religious technical vocabulary. Finally, I will discuss critically Valente’s conscientious use of mystical tradition.
