Pensée, Voix et Parole dans le Zohar

Thougth, Voice and Speech in the "Zohar" The "Zohar" (XIIIth century, Castile) is the masterpiece of medieval Kabbalah. It developed an approach to language centered around the Neoplatonician notion of procession. By combining three notions, thought, voice and speech, the "Zohar" looks to describe the emanational process of the divine world, perceived as a linguistic expression of the Unspeakable. With the help of a lot of texts from this book and through some interpretations delivered by R. Moses of Leon, a Castilian kabbalist of the XIIIth century, to whom the "Zohar" has been attributed by modern scholarship, this study analyzes throughout the Zoharic corpus the process of gradual metamorphosis that, starting from primordial silence, ends in an articulate speech
