  1. Coincidentally, yesterday, while exploring a gift shop, I discovered J. Borges, not Jorge Luis, the Argentian writter that I love, but José Francisco Borges, a Brazilian artist from Pernambuco.

    Now I like two J. Borges, the Argentian writter, and the Brazilian artist, which I need to explore more.

  2. After more than two decades, I reread Deutsches Requiem, written by Borges in February 1946. Having lived in Germany for more than nine years, I now see this short story in a different light, and Borges’ genius feels even more apparent.

    Before returning to Germany this weekend, I will attend a performance of Brahms’s A German Requiem with my parents. The piece explores human compassion, mourning, and fragility. Borges’ short story, on the other hand, presents the perspective of a Nazi concentration camp commandant reflecting on violence and the rejection of empathy.

    If you do not have access to The Aleph, the Wikipedia article offers a good summary (with spoilers).

  7. “The reality was no doubt much more complex than this summary”. 

    Having spent a good amount of time in an infinite, never-ending library inspired by Jorge Luis Borges, it was kind of inevitable that I would want to go on and read some of that author's work. I have been gradually making my way through a beautiful volume of his "Collected Fictions", translated by Andrew Hurley, and I realised when checking that I was nearly at the end.

  13. Acabo de leer el cuento Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius por Jorge Luis Borges por primera vez. Hace años leí un resumen de este cuento en íngles y aunque no hablo español con mucha fluidez las palabras matemáticas y las ideas lingüísticas familiares me ayudaron entender. Espero que puedo leer y escribir con fluidez finalmente. Leer parece más fácil que mirar las películas para aprender el idioma.

  18. Non c'è alcuna ragione perché l'universo sia comprensibile a un uomo istruito del ventesimo secolo, o di qualunque altro secolo.
