Original title: Visión absoluta y visión de lo absoluto en Nicolás de Cusa

Published in Mystic and Millenarianism in Middle Ages

Keywords: Absolute vision, Middle Ages, Mystical vision, Neoplatonism, Nicholas of Cusa.

Introducing the topic of the mystical vision, Nicholas of Cusa becomes the heir of the Neoplatonic tradition while he supposes as the foundation of such a view the same absolute vision. However, his thought is characterized by a parallelism between absolute and human vision to the point that the man can make himself visible the vision of God only by means of selfcontemplation of the dynamism of his own vision.
