Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] This essay sets out to contrast two very different concepts of apocalypse: on the one hand, apocalyptic thought as an alternative to the worn out gnostic thought of Western modernity proposed by Reyes Mate; on the other, the interpretation of the Apocalypse according to Saint John as a vestige of a mythical thought hidden behind the layer of ressentiment placed by the Christian tradition. Bringing these two seemingly incongruous concepts closer together, I propose to carry out a hermeneutical experiment to test whether, as in an electric arc, in this way some light can be produced that contributes to illuminate both concepts and the field that separates them at the same time.
