Podcasts about Jorge Luis Borges

Real Life Devon went full medieval this week with a trip to a Renaissance Fair—this one featuring permanent structures that actually looked “authentic” instead of slapped together by ye olde hot glue. There were swinging rides, wooden horses, and some legit jousting. Unfortunately, the real fantasy was thinking the kids would have fun. Big downer energy. Steven is gearing up for an Arizona trip but had to make a sudden detour into Best Buy territory after his TV gave up the ghost. On the plus side, Andor continues to be amazing and makes up for any consumer electronics woes. (It really is still that good.) Ben has seen Labyrinth (have you?), and he's here for the dream logic and David Bowie's entire vibe. Also thrown into the cinematic blender: The Island and Cliffhanger. We're now seeking out more films where geological or man-made features are basically the co-stars. Let us know if you have one. Oh, and Ben also saw the Slate all-electric pickup truck, which looked like something out of Black Mirror. Meanwhile, TVs just… work now? What a time to be alive. Future or Now Time for some spicy Star Wars takes. We got into it over which trilogy was better: the Prequels or the Sequels. Episode IX (The Rise of Skywalker) got roasted—Devon called it "the worst." Ben leaned sequel-side, arguing they're better than the prequels overall. The breakdown went something like: Prequels: bad films, good plots Sequels: good films, bad plots There were also complaints about Starkiller Base, which feels like someone said “What if Death Star, but more?” But then there's Andor, which everyone agrees is just pure excellence. So Star Wars can still be good when they let writers write. Our rankings for maximum judgment: Devon's list: The Phantom Menace, The Force Awakens, Rise of Skywalker, Attack of the Clones, The Last Jedi, Revenge of the Sith Ben's list: Rise of Skywalker, The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi Your move, Internet.

Real Life: Devon would like to make one thing clear: queso is fine. Queso is acceptable. Just… not on everything, okay? Some of us still want to taste the actual food under the goo. That said, he did just survive a kid's pool party, so maybe he's earned the right to eat whatever the hell he wants — even fake grass, which he claims is "for winners." We're choosing not to dig into that statement. Steven, meanwhile, embraced the full Force of May 4th with joy, lightsabers, and an animated binge of Tales of the Empire — now fully released and featuring everyone's favorite dead-or-maybe-not-dead villainess Asaaj Ventress and the cowboy space bug bounty hunter Cad Bane. Is she still canonically dead? Who knows anymore. The rule is: if you didn't see the body dissolve, they can always come back. Also, Steven's forge is officially up and running. That's right — he's now a blacksmith. We're still waiting to see if this is a long-term thing or just a midlife crisis in steel-toed boots. Over in The Last of Us land, Season 2 Episode 4 dropped, and fans collectively screamed, cried, and probably tweeted GIFs because one of the game's most beloved scenes finally made it to screen — and yes, they nailed it. In a good way. Not like a fungal-mutant-jaw-through-your-neck way. Ben went to a roller derby bout in Irvine (report: chaotic and excellent), wandered the capitalist labyrinth that is Daiso, and wants to remind you it's Teacher Appreciation Week. So tell a teacher they rock, preferably with coffee, snacks, or a handwritten note of pure gratitude. Future or Now Ben brought us Writing Tools, a sleek, free, open-source app created by a high school student in Bangalore (hi, Jesai!) that gives Mac, Windows, and Linux users a system-wide writing boost via AI. It fixes grammar, summarizes content, and even helps you rewrite your angsty emails into something that won't get you fired. Bonus points for working offline and being featured basically everywhere. Teachers, students, chaotic creatives — check it out on GitHub. This also led us down the rabbit hole: Are LLMs bad? Short answer: not inherently. Long answer: come back next week for a full debate, complete with Devon's skeptical eyebrows and Ben's tech optimism. Devon watched Mickey 17, and the verdict is… “eh?” He appreciated the weirdness but didn't feel like the weird ever came together in a satisfying way. Unlike Parasite, which he still recommends, Mickey 17 left him shrugging with existential confusion, which is not his preferred flavor of sci-fi. Steven hit us with some mouse science: researchers have engineered gut bacteria that can detoxify methylmercury in mice, even when those mice are on a diet of bluefin tuna. The mice — and their babies — showed fewer signs of mercury poisoning. This means your sushi habit may one day come with a side of helpful microbes. Until then, maybe cool it on the sashimi. Book Club:  This week, we read A Brief Dance to the Music of the Spheres by Michael Kurland (from The Best of Omni Science Fiction, 1983). It's a sleek, sharp short story that offers a fresh take on the Fermi Paradox: if there's intelligent life out there, why haven't we seen it? The story gives us a possible answer — one we won't spoil here, except to say it involves jazz, physics, and a little cosmic humility. You can read it on Archive.org or listen to the adaptation here. Next week: we're diving into Jorge Luis Borges' There Are More Things. Yes, it's a Borges horror story. Yes, we're terrified and delighted. Yes, Devon has thoughts. Got thoughts on queso, metal mice, or fictional villains who refuse to stay dead? Hit us up. And thank a teacher. Seriously. They've seen some things.

On Easter Weekend, Jesus descended into Hades on Saturday, and thus, we went down into hell to face the Archons inside and outside our minds. Scott R. Jones leads us like a psychopomp, based on his book, Drill. Beyond understanding the control systems of our current simulation, which include fundamentalist religion and parental trauma, Scott provides High Weirdness advice that reminds us of the Gnosis of Philip K. Dick, William Burroughs, and Jorge Luis Borges. You are in danger, and those mind parasites are ready to drain your energetic body completely. Let's turn the tide right now with our innate magic.

En Deutsches Requiem, Borges se mete en la mente de Otto zur Linde, un nazi condenado tras la guerra que no se arrepiente ni pide perdón. Al contrario: se ve a sí mismo como un servidor de una causa moral superior. A través de este personaje, Borges no nos habla del mal como ignorancia o miedo, sino como convicción. Nos recuerda que algunos fanáticos están dispuestos a destruir el mundo no porque no sepan lo que hacen, sino porque creen que están haciendo lo correcto.https://linktr.ee/bibliotequeando

El 7 de abril se cumplen 135 años del nacimiento de Victoria Ocampo, una escritora, intelectual, ensayista, traductora, editora, filántropa y mecenas argentina que dejó una marca propia dentro de la literatura argentina y del resto del mundo. Ramona Victoria Epifanía Rufina Ocampo (1890-1979) nació en el seno de una familia aristocrática y fue educada con institutrices y su primer idioma fue el francés. En 1924 publicó su primera obra, De Francesca a Beatrice, editada por la Revista de Occidente con la ayuda de José Ortega y Gasset. Ya en esos años fue protagonista en las primeras manifestaciones de los movimientos feministas, intelectuales y antifascistas argentinos, lo que la llevó a fundar en 1936 la Unión Argentina de Mujeres. En 1931 fundó la mítica revista y editorial Sur, que promovió las obras literarias de autores nacionales e internacionales como Jorge Luis Borges, Adolfo Bioy Casares, Ernesto Sabato, Silvina Ocampo, Alejandra Pizarnik, José Bianco, Virginia Woolf, Carl Gustav Jung y Andre Malraux, entre otros y hasta el cese parcial de su publicación en 1971. Victoria Ocampo fue presidenta del Fondo Nacional de las Artes desde 1958 a 1973 y recibió diversas distinciones así como doctorados honoris causa otorgados por varias universidades. Además, en 1977 se convirtió en la primera mujer elegida miembro de la Academia Argentina de Letras. Compartimos un fragmento del discurso que ofreció en esa ocasión y que conserva el Archivo Histórico de Radio Nacional.  

Fervor de Buenos Aires no es sólo un libro de poemas: es una declaración de amor. A Buenos Aires, claro, pero también a la literatura, a la palabra justa, al silencio que queda entre verso y verso. Es el mapa inicial de un universo que más tarde se va a expandir hasta el infinito de los espejos, los tigres y las bibliotecas interminables.Pueden escribirme a mtsgalletti@gmail.com para compartir conmigo todo lo que quieran y también para consultar por clases de español.

En este episodio especial de Puerto de Libros Librería Radiofónica, nos sumergimos en una joya musical de 1975: Jairo canta a Borges, un disco que reúne la poesía del inmortal Jorge Luis Borges con la sensibilidad musical de grandes compositores argentinos.A través de la voz de Jairo y la interpretación de artistas como Astor Piazzolla, Eduardo Falú, Eladia Blázquez y Facundo Cabral, exploramos un repertorio que convierte en canción la esencia borgeana, llena de milongas, nostalgia y un profundo amor por Buenos Aires. Cada pista es una puerta a la palabra poética del maestro Borges, tomando vida en la música con una fuerza inigualable.Desde "No hay cosa como la muerte", con letra inspirada en Para las seis cuerdas, hasta "No habrá sino recuerdos", basado en Fervor de Buenos Aires, este disco es un testimonio de la fusión entre literatura y música, entre la tradición y la vanguardia.Acompáñanos en este viaje sonoro donde las palabras de Borges se transforman en melodías inolvidables. ¡Sintoniza y déjate llevar por la magia de Jairo canta a Borges!

Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges (1944-1955) vs The Aleph by Jorge Luis Borges (1945)

In this episode we delve into one of the signature commercial and critical flops of New Hollywood: Dennis Hopper's The Last Movie. This gorgeous yet impenetrable film was a crucial turning point bridging the early hippie-influenced films of the late 60s with the more cynical and popular mainstream cinema that came to define the 1970s. We are joined by Stephen Lee Naish, author of two different books discussing this week's subject - Create or Die: Essays on the Films of Dennis Hopper, and Music and Sound in the Films of Dennis Hopper. So enjoy listening to someone actually qualified to talk about this stuff for a change! Topics include: American New Wave vs. New Hollywood, Jorge Luis Borges, and Charles Manson.

durée : 01:21:16 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Antoine Dhulster - “Nuits magnétiques” consacrait en 1994 une émission au symbole du labyrinthe, deuxième temps d'une série sur l'égarement. À chaque époque, le labyrinthe reflète la figure de l'infini, mais aussi de l'enfermement et de la cécité. C'est le sujet abordé dans cet épisode par différentes personnalités. - réalisation : Antoine Larcher - invités : Jorge Luis Borges; Françoise Frontisi-Ducroux; Jean Le Gac Peintre; Marcel Czermak

El registro de la Biblioteca Antonio Martínez Asensio de Hoy por Hoy dio de alta la novela 'El secreto de Marcial'  de Jorge Fernández Díaz (Destino), Premio Nadal 2025. Una novela familiar y de memoria. El autor de 'Mamá' (Algaguara) nos trae una novela donde el protagonista es el padre y su secreto. El trasfondo la historia de una familia asturiana que en plena postguerra española migró a Argentina y vive permanente entre la nostalgia y el cine hollywoodiense televisado en las grandes sesiones de las tardes del fin de semana. Jorge Fernández Díaz, además nos ha donado dos libros que forman parte de sus lecturas: 'Música para camaleones' de Truman Capote (Anagrama) y 'El  Aleph'  de Jorge Luis Borges (DeBolsillo) . Antonio Martínez Asensio nos ha confesado, sin pudor, como debe ser, que está leyendo por primera vez 'El primer hombre' de Albert Camus (Tusquets) . Sí, nunca se avergüencen de no haber leído un libro porque entonces nunca lo leerán. También Martínez Asensio ha descubierto una editorial valenciana , Media Vaca, que ha enfocado sus publicaciones en la memoria y que tiene dos novedades impactantes : ''Cuentos sobre Alicante y Albatera' de Jorge Campos y 'La guerra ha terminado. Alicante 1939' (varios autores) . Son dos ediciones de lujo, espectaculares. Otras novedades las has traído el empleado de La Biblioteca Pepe Rubio que son: 'La vida suspendida' de Eduardo Laporte (Sr. Scott Libros) y 'Habitada' de Cristina Sánchez-Andrade (Anagrama) .

"La Ciudad Ociosa" (The Idle City) es un relato fantástico del escritor británico Lord Dunsany (1878-1957), publicado en la antología de 1910: Cuentos de un soñador (A Dreamer's Tales). Si bien es cierto que La ciudad ociosa es uno de los mejores relatos de Lord Dunsany, también es justo decir que es uno de los menos conocidos de su obra. Recién obtuvo su merecido reconocimiento como verdadero clásico del género en 1940, cuando el escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges lo incluyó en la mítica colección: Antología de la literatura fantástica.

It focuses on the effect that the Zahir exerts on the Borges of the story. He received it as a coin given in change purchasing a brandy.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the philosophical idealism that characterizes the cultures and civilization of Tlön's countries, and the difficulty of framing a heretical or paradoxical materialism. The solution to the paradox of the coins is developed by an orthodox philosopher, who proposes a idealistic pantheism or monism. This video also discusses the production of objects, hrönir as they are called, out of expectation, hope, or desire.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the ways in which the assumption of philosophical idealism, reflected in the very languages of the world of Tlön, affect not just the mindsets of the people, but even the disciplines studied and applied within it. The most important discipline is psychology, with all other disciplines being subordinate to it. Metaphysics is evaluated on aesthetics grounds and is viewed as a portion of fantasy literature.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Garden of Forking Paths" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the narrative at the center of the larger story, the production of a labyrinth as a novel by Ts'ui Pen, and its translation, editing, and explanation by the sinologist Dr. Stephen Albert. The Garden of Forking Paths is that novel, which appears to be contradictory, confused, a chaos, but which represents an image of the universe as Ts'ui Pen understands it, particularly in terms of the dimension of time, which is neither linear, nor cyclical, but a much more complex network of diverging, converging, and parallel timelines To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Get Borges' Collected Fictions here - https://amzn.to/3xZnwHA

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Garden of Forking Paths" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the narrative of the spy or secret agent genre which provides the outer shell of the more metaphysical narrative nested within it. This story centers around a Chinese spy for the German Empire during World War, Dr Yu Tsun, who intends to communicate the location of a British artillery concentration on the Western front in France. Tsun is pursued by Capt Richard Madden, who has already caught one of Tsun's fellow agents, and who catches him at the house of the sinologist Dr. Stephen Albert, who fortuitously has translated and provides an explanation of the labyrinth and novel of Tsun's great grandfather Ts'ui Pen. It turns out that the novel, The Garden of Forking Paths, is the labyrinth. Tsun kills Albert just as Madden arrives, in order to be able to communicate his message to his German spymaster.

David and Tamler crawl up a riverbank, kiss the mud, and dream a discussion of Borges' “The Circular Ruins.” We sort through various interpretations and allusions, the story as a metaphor for artistic creation, gnostic cosmology, solipsism, eternal recursion, and the unstable boundary between reality and illusion. How does Borges fit all of this and much more in a 5 page story? Plus, Scientific American endorses Kamala Harris – is that a big deal? We look at a study purporting to show that Nature's Biden endorsement eroded trust in science among Trump supporters. Political endorsement by Nature and trust in scientific expertise during COVID-19 [nature.com] The Circular Ruins by Jorge Luis Borges [wikipedia.org]
