Where it came from
Published in 1975 by Sine nomine, this scholarly study emerged during a period of intense academic interest in the structuralist and ontological complexities of Jorge Luis Borges's work. Richard Albert Valdés composed this analysis to investigate how the Argentine author synthesized disparate philosophical traditions—ranging from Berkeleyan idealism to Zeno’s paradoxes—into the concise, labyrinthine narratives that define his literary legacy.
The text serves as a focused investigation into the mechanics of Borges's fiction, seeking to demystify how abstract metaphysical concepts are transformed into aesthetic devices. As a monograph from the mid-1970s, it reflects the era's formalist approach to literary criticism, aiming to provide a rigorous framework for understanding the interplay between philosophical speculation and the artistic architecture of the short story format.
