Literature and Literary Criticism according to an “Incomplete Disbeliever”, Emil Cioran. The present study analyses the views of Cioran, as an “incomplete believer” upon literature and literary criticism, as he defines himself. Despite his pretended reticence about these cultural fields, the philosopher, often considered a writer, both in Romania and in France, is a passionate literature reader, as well as the author of lyrical, highly expressive essays, convinced of the ontological value of literature and arts.

Keywords: Cioran, literature, literary criticism, lyricism, novel, philosophy, disbelief.
