The Humanist Confession of Exogenous Religions in Le continent du Tout et du presque Rien by Sami Tchak
Through the interstices of works of the mind, the project of living together is recurrent in view of the convulsions which shake the planet due to cultural or confessional antagonisms. Humanist by nature, the artist aims to achieve a harmonious life between practitioners of various religions condemned to share the same living environment. Sami Tchak, through The Continent of Everything and Almost Nothing, sets out in search of the holy grail of religious tolerance that humanity so desperately desires. By what tricks was he able to romanticize the interreligious dialogue which underlies living together between the protagonists of different faiths? How is the humanist philosophy that emerges from this fiction expressed? This analysis involves studying the project of a harmonious society despite the identity differences characteristic of human societies. To achieve this end, we used the sociocritical approach which allowed us to interpret the social realities mentioned in the text. Keywords: Works of the Spirit, Religions, Humanism, Living Together
