- Abstract:
  The article presents a biography of Argentine author and poet Jorge Luis Borges, and it provides critiques of Borges' short stories "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius," "The Garden of Forking Paths," and "Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote." Borges' family life, childhood, and travel are addressed, along with his writing style and his contributions to twentieth century postmodernism literature. Borges' literary explorations of imaginary universes and labyrinths are assessed.
