This article aims at placing Henri Delacroix's (1908) book on the psychology of mysticism in the context of debates in the psychology of religion in the earlier part of the 20th century. I argue that Delacroix's work was authored as part of a wider debate that Delacroix maintained with the American school of the psychology of religion regarding the role of emotions in religious experience. As I show, Delacroix sought to counter the primacy of the affective in religious experience, which the Americans maintained, and to introduce the notion of a developmental logic into the mystical life. In addition, Delacroix also tried to disengage mysticism from an exclusive focus on ecstasy, as well as to offer an account of the value of mysticism based on the existence of a specific mental state that underscored it.

从狂喜到神圣的梦游主义：亨利·德拉克鲁瓦（Henri Delacroix）对神秘主义的历史和心理学的研究。

本文旨在将亨利·德拉克鲁瓦（Henri Delacroix）（1908年）所著的关于神秘主义心理学的书放到20世纪初宗教心理学的辩论中。我认为德拉克洛瓦的著作是德拉克洛瓦与美国宗教心理学学校就情绪在宗教经验中的作用所保持的更广泛辩论的一部分。正如我所展示的那样，德拉克洛瓦（Delacroix）试图抵消美国人在宗教经验中的情感至上地位，并将这种发展逻辑的概念引入神秘生活中。此外，德拉克鲁瓦还试图使神秘主义脱离对迷魂药的专一关注，并根据某种神秘心理状态的存在来说明神秘主义的价值。
