Summary note
This book seeks to fill a double lacuna in Borges scholarship. For one, this scholarship has been largely developed through the lens of literary and cultural studies, and not by political theorists who bring a distinct disciplinary perspective into the reading of literary works. Secondly, mainstream interpreters have overlooked or have not analyzed enough Borges{u2019}s political sympathies. This book does not evaluate if these sympathies are truthful to political and historical facts or philosophical theories; rather, the author shows in which aspects and around which topics Borges finds inspiration and gives literary form to the political.--Publisher's description.
