Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Borges Beyond the Visible presents radically new readings of some of Jorge Luis Borgess most celebrated stories. Max Ubelaker Andrade shows how Borges employed intertextual puzzles to transform his personal experiences with blindness, sexuality, and suicide while allowing readers to sense the transformative power of their own literary imaginations.In readings of Tloen, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius, El Aleph, and El Zahir, Ubelaker Andrade argues that Borges, considering his own impending blindness, borrowed from Islams prohibitions on visual representation to create a literary theologya religion focused on the contradictions of literary existence and the unstable complexities of a visual world perceived without everyday sight. Embracing these contradictions allowed Borges to transform his relationships with sex, sexuality, and family in multilayered stories such as Emma Zunz, La intrusa, and El jardin de senderos que se bifurcan. Yet these liberating transformations, sometimes offered to the reader as a paradoxical gift of death, are complicated by La salvacion por las obras, a story built around Borgess relationship with a suicidal reader and the woman to whom they were both connected. The epilogue presents Misticos del Islam, an unpublished essay draft by Borges, as a key source of insight into an irreverent, iconoclastic writing practice based on a profound faith in fiction.Compelling and clear, Borges Beyond the Visible is a revelatory examination of the work of one of the most influential authors of the twentieth century. It opens up exciting areas of inquiry for scholars, students, and readers of Borges. Presents a new approach to Jorge Luis Borges work, exploring dimensions of his literary project involving theology, blindness, literary imagination, gender, sexuality, and suicide.
