Unamuno's Sui Generis Religion



"...an intimate, agnostic religiosity, more adaptable to song than to theological expression, a doubting agony, and [a] suffering and antidogmatic Christianity..."

Phantom of my suffering breast;
projection of my spirit to the remote
beyond the last stars;
dream of anguish;
Father, Son of my soul;
Ah Thou, whom we deny affirming,
whom denying we affirm,
tell us whether you exist!
I long to see you, Lord, and die then...


~ Margaret T. Rudd, The Lone Heretic, 164-165.
