Un ensayo que muestra el costado más lúdico y menos solemne del gran escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges. ¿Cuál es la clave, la contraseña o la molécula inigualable que constituye la esencia de lo borgeano? Alan Pauls hilvana, a su manera, un manual de instrucciones que da cuenta de la obra más importante de la literatura argentina. Pero más que un conjunto de ensayos críticos, El factor Borges atraviesa los principales conceptos asociados a ese universo —originalidad, tradición, biblioteca— para mapear no sólo el núcleo de sus textos, sino también la configuración de su identidad. Una búsqueda tan profunda como incesante por la imagen que el escritor proyectó durante su vida y de manera póstuma y, por supuesto, esa maquinaria perfecta que se anticipó a su tiempo y trasciende su propia sintaxis. También lo que no siempre llegamos a considerar sobre Borges encuentra una dimensión en este libro. Incluso su perseverante naturaleza pendenciera y esas estrategias sutiles pero significativas que Pauls interpreta de manera magistral, como la aparente coquetería de quitarse sólo un año de edad para coincidir exactamente con el siglo que le tocó vivir. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An essay showing the most ludic and less solemn side of the great Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges. What is the key, the password, or the unparalleled molecule that constitutes Borges’ essence? Alan Pauls ties together, in his own way, an instruction manual that gives an account of the most important works in Argentinian literature. But more than a collection of critical essays, The Borges Factor runs through the main concepts associated with this universe—originality, tradition, library—to not only map the core of Borges’ texts, but also the geometry of his identity. It is a quest as deep as it is relentless to find the image the writer projected during his lifetime and posthumously. And, of course, that perfect machinery that was ahead of its time and that transcends his own syntax. Furthermore, what we never fully considered about Borges finds its own dimension in this book. Even his persistently quarrelsome nature, and those subtle yet significant strategies that Pauls interprets masterfully, including the seemingly coy act of pretending to be only one year younger to match exactly the birth of the century he lived in.

Jorge Luis Borges is, undeniably, Argentina's best-known and most influential writer. In addition to scholarly studies of his work, his emblematic figure continues to appear on book covers and carrier bags, in biographies, plaques and statues, photographs and interviews, as well as cartoons and city tours. The Making of Jorge Luis Borges as an Argentine Cultural Icon argues that the ideas and expectations that Argentine people have placed upon the author - thus constructing the icon - are also those that allow them to define their cultural identity. The book examines these intertwined processes by analysing the image of Borges in biographies, photographs, comic strips and urban spaces and the socio-political, historical and cultural contexts in which they were produced. The study seeks not to reveal a Borgesian essence but, rather, to expose the complexity of the ongoing mechanisms which construct Borges the icon. Despite the vast amount of biographical and critical work about the writer that has been produced in Argentina and abroad, The Making of Jorge Luis Borges as an Argentine Cultural Icon is the first in-depth, comprehensive examination of the construction of the author as an Argentine cultural icon.

Focusing on work by Jorge Luis Borges, Samuel Beckett and J.M. Coetzee, Literary Cynics explores the relationship between literature and cynicism to consider what happens when authors write themselves into their art, against the rhetoric of authority. Rose takes as his starting point three moments of aesthetic crisis in the careers of these literary cynics: Borges's parables of the 1950s, Beckett's plays of the 1980s, and Coetzee's pedagogic novels of the 2000s. In their transition to 'late style', the works reflect their writers' abiding concern with particular conceptions of rhetoric and aesthetic form. Literary Cynics combines accounts of these 'late' works with classic, lesser known, and archival texts by the three writers, from Coetzee's Disgrace to Beckett's letters, as well as detailed analysis of cynicism, both ancient and modern, as a philosophical and political movement.

Borges once stated that he had never created a character: 'It's always me, subtly disguised'. This book focuses on the ways in which Borges uses events and experiences from his own life, in order to demonstrate how they become the principal structuring motifs of his work. It aims to show how these experiences, despite being 'heavily disguised', are crucial components of some of Borges's most canonical short stories, particularly from the famous collections Ficciones and El Aleph. Exploring the rich tapestry of symmetries, doubles and allusions and the roles played by translation and the figure of the creator, the book provides new readings of these stories, revealing their hidden personal, emotional and spiritual dimensions. These insights shed fresh light on Borges's supreme literary craftsmanship and the intimate puzzles of his fictions.

A distinguished poet and essayist and one of the finest writers of short stories in world letters, Jorge Luis Borges deliberately and regularly altered his work by extensive revision. In this volume, renowned Borges scholar Daniel Balderston undertakes to piece together Borges's creative process through the marks he left on paper. Balderston has consulted over 170 manuscripts and primary documents to reconstruct the creative process by which Borges arrived at his final published texts. How Borges Wrote is organized around the stages of his writing process, from notes on his reading and brainstorming sessions to his compositional notebooks, revisions to various drafts, and even corrections in already-published works. The book includes hundreds of reproductions of Borges’s manuscripts, allowing the reader to see clearly how he revised and "thought" on paper. The manuscripts studied include many of Borges’s most celebrated stories and essays--"The Aleph," "Kafka and His Precursors," "The Cult of the Phoenix," "The Garden of Forking Paths," "Emma Zunz," and many others--as well as lesser known but important works such as his 1930 biography of the poet Evaristo Carriego. As the first and only attempt at a systematic and comprehensive study of the trajectory of Borges's creative process, this will become a definitive work for all scholars who wish to trace how Borges wrote.

"Borges and Joyce stand as two of the most revolutionary writers of the twentieth-century. Both are renowned for their polyglot abilities, prodigious memories, cyclical conception of time, labyrinthine creations, and for their shared condition as European emigres and blind bards of Dublin and Buenos Aires. Yet at the same time, Borges and Joyce differ in relation to the central aesthetic of their creative projects: the epic scale of the Irishman contrasts with the compressed fictions of the Argentine. In this comprehensive and engaging study, Patricia Novillo-Corvalan demonstrates that Borges created a version of Joyce refracted through the prism of his art, thus encapsulating the colossal magnitude of Ulysses and Finnegans Wake within the confines of a nutshell. Separate chapters triangulate Borges and Joyce with the canonical legacy of Homer, Dante, and Shakespeare using as a point of departure Walter Benjamin's notion of the afterlife of a text. This ambitious, interdisciplinary study offers a model for Comparative Literature in the twenty-first century."
