Expanded edition with new chapters and updates to the translation and bibliography.Borges cites innumerable authors in the pages making up his lifes work, and innumerable authors have cited and continue to cite him. More than a figure, then, the quotation is an integral part of the fabric of his writing, a fabric made anew by each reading and each recitation it undergoes, in the neverending throes of a workinprogress. Block de Behar makes of this reading a plea for the very art of communication; a practice that takes community not in the totalized and totalizable soil of preestablished definitions or essences, but on the ineluctable repetitions that constitute language as such, and that guarantee the expansivenessthrough etymological coincidences of meaning, through historical contagions, through translinguistic sharings of particular experiencesof a certain index of universality. This edition includes a new introduction by the author and three entirely new chapters, as well as updated images and corrections to the original translation.
