Joseph Malègue (8 December 1876 – 30 December 1940), was a French catholic novelist, principally author of Augustin ou le Maître est là (1933) and Pierres noires.
Les classes moyennes du Salut.
He was also a theologian and published some theological surveys, as Pénombres about Faith and against Fideism.
His first novel is, following the French historian of spirituality Émile Goichot, the most accurately linked to Modernism.
Pope Francis quoted in several circumstances, among them in El Jesuita this Malègue's view about Incarnation : ‘’ It is not Christ who is incomprehensible for me if He is God, it is God who is strange for me if He is not Christ.‘’
