Summary/Abstract: Benjamin Pelletier is a living proof of the assertion according to which the correct knowledge of the world is conferred by the exercise of complementarity between the exact sciences with their analytical dominant and humanities with their synthetic dominant. Of humanist formation, Benjamin Pelletier studied philosophy followed however by a Master’s degree of economic intelligence to become a cultural management consultant and author of two novels. He supports the idea that the interculturality cannot "operate" outside the interdisciplinarity.These preliminary remarks allow us to propose a discussion on the intercultural and the interdisciplinary based on the novel À travers sables - Throughout sands (Editions L'Olivier, 2009) and the blog http://gestion-des-risques-interculturels.com, especially the articles that refer to Saudi Arabia, a country where Benjamin Pelletier places his fictional character.
