"Le soleil intérieur" by Adolphe Retté is a biographical narrative likely written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the life of Saint Joseph of Cupertino, a canonized saint known for his deep spirituality, mystical experiences, and the extraordinary miracles attributed to him, such as levitation and clairvoyance. Retté aims to explore the essence of Joseph's spiritual life and the profound connection he had with the divine, depicting a character who navigates both societal disdain and religious devotion. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to the idea of a 'Soleil intérieur'—an inner light symbolizing divine grace and truth—which permeates the life of Joseph of Cupertino. Retté reflects on the intense struggles and tribulations Joseph faced during his early life, which were compounded by a lack of understanding from those around him, including his family and peers. Despite the challenges, Joseph's profound devotion and mystical tendencies become apparent as he engages with the divine through prayer and contemplation, often becoming lost in spiritual raptures. The opening sets the stage for a detailed examination of his life, highlighting not only the extraordinary aspects of his spirituality but also the human experiences that shaped his journey towards sainthood.
