Jorge Luis Borges: A Writer on the Edge (Critical Studies in Latin American and Iberian Culture)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Jorge Luis Borges is generally acknowledged to be one of the twentieth centuryâ€™s most significant writers. Yet in all the critical debates on his work, the fact that he is Argentinian is rarely discussed, as if his international reputation had somehow cleansed him of nationality. In this brilliant introduction to his work, Sarlo challenges these â€œuniversalistâ€ readings, arguing that they leave aside vital aspects of Borgesâ€™ writing, including his powerful vision of Argentinaâ€™s past and its traditions, which placed both the writer and his country at the intersection of European and Latin American culture.
