Jorge Luis Borges, Post-Analytic Philosophy, and Representation by Silvia Dapa

Jorge Luis Borges, Post-Analytic Philosophy, and Representation by Silvia Dapa

This book reads Borges philosophically, particularly in reference to his use of representation and reality. It exhibits how philosophical questions related to representation develop out of literature and serve as precursors to the various strains of post-analytic philosophy. Dapia discusses American philosophers Rorty, Putnam, Davidson, Goodman,

"It is an ambitious study, for sure; truly bold researchBut also very skillful. It must be noted that any serious study about Borges must embrace challenge. And it is clear that Dapía does so with dexterity and command."

- Marina Martín, College of St. Benedict, St. John’s University

"Jorge Luis Borges, Post-Analytic Philosophy and Representation is a veritable tour de force: the kind of book that makes you think and rethink many things; a perfect book for anyone who appreciates the connections between philosophy and literature. And lastly, it is a book that mas-terfully performs the task of sounding the depths of Borges’ complex philosophical engagements."

- Rolando Pérez, Hunter College–CUNY, Arizona Journal of Hispanic Cultural Studies
