Jorge Luis Borges and His Predecessors
THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA PRESS
2006
nidottu
Read locates both the work of Jorge Luis Borges and Western ideas on language in their historical context. He reviews the theoretically diverse critical approaches to Borges's work, including both those that collude with the texts and others that are hostile to the Argentinian writer, and argues that all are inadequate for understanding Borges. He maintains that the modern subject is now characterized by narcissism associated with philosophical skepticism.
The author is an internationally acknowledged authority on flies and fly tying. This is a revised and expanded version of Modern Fly Dressings for the Practical Angler, with full-colour, step-by-step photographs and recipes for more than 150 patterns for trout, bass, pike, steelhead, and seatrout. It is intended for tiers of all skills levels and includes chapters on insects and materials. Like all of Jorgensen's work, the patterns here are informed by a keen knowledge of naturals and the tying method distinguished by an economy and elegance of style that has become his trademark.

This delightfully illustrated biography leads young readers ages 7-10 to identify with the adventures and challenges that molded Pope Francis--the first pope to be a member of the Jesuit religious order, to come from Latin America, and to take the papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi--into a missionary of God's unconditional love. Known for his humility, simplicity, concern for the poor, respect for the environment, and commitment to interfaith dialogue, Pope Francis is a positive role model and contemporary hero for all children.

Jorge Luís Borges: Borges on Shakespeare
Grace Tiffany
State University of New York at Binghamton,Medieval Renaissance Texts Studies
2018
sidottu
Celebrated Argentine author Jorge Luís Borges found Shakespeare’s work so compelling that he not only fictively imagined the life of the playwright in two short stories, but also fashioned other stories and poems into adaptations of or meditations on Shakespeare’s plays, wrote essays about Shakespeare, and discussed him frequently in interviews, university lectures, and public talks. In this volume, Grace Tiffany gathers together all these varied writings and conversations. A critical edition, Borges on Shakespeare contains a lengthy introduction by its editor; annotated Borges stories, poems, essays, and transcribed talks (including his famous tales “Everything and Nothing” and “Shakespeare’s Memory”); essay contributions and one piece of fiction by Borges scholars; and a bibliography. Borges’ “Shakespeare” material has heretofore been available to readers only in scattered sources. Combining them in one, Borges on Shakespeare directly addresses Borges’ lifelong engagement with Shakespeare, an author of tremendous significance to his own work and thought, and renders some Borges works in English translation for the first time. Borges on Shakespeare will be useful to scholars of Shakespeare, Borges, and comparative literature and drama, as well as to the general reader who enjoys Shakespeare, Borges’ fiction, or both.
