Borges cites innumerable authors in the pages making up his life's
work, and innumerable authors have cited and continue to cite him.
More than a figure, then, the quotation is an integral part of the
fabric of his writing, a fabric made anew by each reading and each
re-citation it undergoes, in the never-ending throes of a
work-in-progress. Block de Behar makes of this reading a plea for
the very art of communication; a practice that takes community not
in the totalized and totalizable soil of pre-established
definitions or essences, but on the ineluctable repetitions that
constitute language as such, and that guarantee the expansiveness
-- through etymological coincidences of meaning, through historical
contagions, through translinguistic sharings of particular
experiences -- of a certain index of universality.
