Borges, el cine
Y LAS ESTRATEGIAS DE REPRESENTACIÓN
Betina Keizman
Resumen
Abstract
Borges made a writing laboratory with literature and cinema criticisms in which
he tried a formal, stylistic and thematic investigation that allows to follow the
evolution of his texts and the process that ends in the contamination between
narrative and essay formats that is the characteristic of his prose. On the other
hand, analyzing films, Borges searches for and borrows new narrative strate-
gies, other perception forms. Stimulated by the discovery of what he considers
as a naked formulation -filmic- of the narrative structure, he evaluates his
scope from representation genuineness and efficiency criteria, which enables
new reading ways of his own production.
Keywords: Borges, cinema, representation systems, fiction theory.

Los episodios preliminares parecen falsos. Ello se debe, en parte, a esa calle
demasiado típica, demasiado europea (en el sentido californiano de la pala-
bra) que nos proponen. Es innegable que una calle de Dublin no es absolu-
tamente igual a una calle de San Francisco, pero se parece más a esta calle
-por ser auténticas las dos- que a un evidente simulacro, abarrotado de
cargoso color local. Las diferencias locales parecen haber impresionado más

Las primeras escenas registran los tesoros acumulados por Foster Kane; en
una de las últimas, una pobre mujer lujosa y doliente juega en el suelo de un
palacio que es también un museo, con un rompecabezas enorme. Al final
