Intertexte et création poétique L’exemple de Swedenborg dans Aurélia

Swedenborg is cited on multiple occasions. In Aurélia, an allusion is made to the Swedish theosopher at the beginning of the text; he is presented as a major point of reference alongside Dante and Apuleius. There, Nerval’s vision is reconciled with Swedenborg’s Mémorables. The word will be reused as the title of a prose poem, which serves as the first ending for the story. This article studies this relationship that is simultaneously present and difficult to isolate due to a process of attenuation, multiple intertexts, and absorption.
