Cover design for The House of Asterion, by Jorge Luis Borges

[quotespile]

“Any time something is written against me, I not only share the sentiment but feel I could do the job far better myself. Perhaps I should advise would-be enemies to send me their grievances beforehand, with full assurance that they will receive my every aid and support. I have even secretly longed to write, under a pen name, a merciless tirade against myself.”

— Jorge Luis Borges, The Aleph

[whisperthatruns]

Each part of the house occurs many times; any particular place is another place. There is not one wellhead, one courtyard, one drinking trough, one manger; there are fourteen [an infinite number of] mangers, drinking troughs, courtyards, wellheads. The house is as big as the world—or rather, it is the world. Nevertheless, by making my way through every single courtyard with its wellhead and every single dusty gallery of gray stone, I have come out onto the street and seen the temple of the Axes and the sea. That sight, I did not understand until a night vision revealed to me that there are also fourteen [an infinite number of] seas and temples. Everything exists many times, fourteen times, but there are two things in the world that apparently exist but once—on high, the intricate sun, and below, Asterion. Perhaps I have created the stars and the sun and this huge house, and no longer remember it.

Jorge Luis Borges, tr. Andrew Hurley, from "The House of Asterion," The Aleph (1949), Collected Fictions (Penguin, 1998)

Borges transformed English critical language with metaphors like “Borgesian,” “Aleph,” and the “Library of Babel,” giving English new ways to describe infinity, recursion, and the paradoxes of knowledge.
