초록

Borges’s “El Aleph”(El Aleph) is a complicated literary text featuring three aspects: linguistic, psychological, and philosophical. First, the linguistic aspect deals with the limitations of verbal signs that hinder us from perceiving the reality or distort it. Thus, the narrator, Borges, underestimates Daneri’s poetical work for failing to capture the literary truth, and denies the Aleph that he saw in person in the basement of Daneri’s. Second, from the psychological aspect the narrator expresses his disbelief of Beatrice’s obscene image reflected in the Aleph, and asserts that Daneri’s Aleph is fake. Finally, the philosophical aspect shows the nominalist view of the world, which describes the superficial and trivial image of the world without any archetype or Plato’s idea. Underneath these three aspect, however, lie longings for the literary truth, the pure image of Beatrice, and the realist view of the world, which are impossible in the modern world. This structural mechanism creates the pathos of “The Aleph”.

Abstract

Borges’s “El Aleph”(El Aleph) is a complicated literary text featuring three aspects: linguistic, psychological, and philosophical. First, the linguistic aspect deals with the limitations of verbal signs that hinder us from perceiving the reality or distort it. Thus, the narrator, Borges, underestimates Daneri’s poetical work for failing to capture the literary truth, and denies the Aleph that he saw in person in the basement of Daneri’s. Second, from the psychological aspect the narrator expresses his disbelief of Beatrice’s obscene image reflected in the Aleph, and asserts that Daneri’s Aleph is fake. Finally, the philosophical aspect shows the nominalist view of the world, which describes the superficial and trivial image of the world without any archetype or Plato’s idea. Underneath these three aspect, however, lie longings for the literary truth, the pure image of Beatrice, and the realist view of the world, which are impossible in the modern world. This structural mechanism creates the pathos of “The Aleph”.
