This article reviews their approach and its common terminology in research about both the fantastic and the mystical aiming to propose an in-between phenomenon, which is present in lyrical poetry: “the mysterious”. The fantastic deals with the unknown through fictitious narration by means of extraordinary events that belong to another world, that take place in the intratextual reality (reflect of the reader’s reality) and that provoke an “estrangement”. For its part, the mystical tries to describe the indescribable divine union experienced by the mystic through the language that is closest to abstraction due to its musicality and that is exempt from fictionality thanks to its emotionality, that is to say, lyrical poetry. The mysterious shares some of these characteristics and is the treatment of the secret in our world through modern lyric. The article provides some extracts from the short story “El perseguidor” (1986) by Cortázar for the fantastic, from poems by San Juan de la Cruz for the mystical and the poem “Al centro rayeante” (1949) by Juan Ramón Jiménez for the mysterious.Lo fantástico y lo místico se dirigen, aunque distintamente, al misterio, ello es, a lo desconocido, que aterra y causa deseo a la vez. Este artículo repasa cómo lo hacen y revisa la terminología común en las investigaciones al respecto con tal de proponer un fenómeno que se encuentra entre estos y que surge en la lírica moderna: “lo misterioso”. Desde la narración ficticia, la literatura fantástica trata lo ignoto, que aparece en la realidad intratextual (reflejo de la del lector) a través de sucesos extraordinarios pertenecientes a otro plano y generadores de un “extrañamiento”. Lo místico, por su lado, trata de hacer fable la inefable unión divina experimentada por el místico mediante el lenguaje que más se encamina a la abstracción por su musicalidad y cuya emocionalidad la exime de la ficción, o sea, la poesía lírica. Coincide con ciertos de estos puntos lo misterioso, que es el tratamiento de lo secreto de nuestro mundo en la lírica moderna. El artículo se sirve de fragmentos del cuento “El perseguidor” (1986) de Cortázar para lo fantástico, de poemas de San Juan de la Cruz para lo místico y del poema “Al centro rayeante” (1949) de Juan Ramón Jiménez para lo misterioso.Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Letras y Ciencias Humanas2022-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/revistaLetras/article/view/2083910.30920/letras.93.137.9Letras (Lima); Vol. 93 No. 137 (2022): January - June; 117-129Letras (Lima); Vol. 93 Núm. 137 (2022): Enero - Junio; 117-1292071-50720378-487810.30920/letras.93.137reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstname:Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstacron:UNMSMspahttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/revistaLetras/article/view/20839/18315Derechos de autor 2022 Letras (Lima)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.csi.unmsm:article/208392023-10-11T10:57:31Z
