Conclusion: Renunciation Stories and Wandering Kings.This book follows the renunciation story in Borges and beyond, arguing for its centrality as a Borgesian compositional trope and as a Borgesian prism for reading a global constellation of texts. The renunciation story at the heart of Buddhism, that of a king who leaves his palace to become an ascetic, fascinated Borges because of its cross-cultural adaptability and metamorphic nature, and because it resonated so powerfully across philosophy, politics and aesthetics. From the story and its many variants, Borges's essays formulated a 'morphological' conception of literature (borrowing the idea from Goethe), whereby a potentially infinite number of stories were generated by transformation of a finite number of 'archetypes'. The king-and-ascetic encounter also tells a powerful political story, setting up a confrontation between power and authority; Borges's own political predicament is explored against the rich background of truth-telling renouncers. In its poetic variant, the renunciation archetype morphs into stories about art and artists, with renunciation a key requirement of the creative process: the discussion weaves in and out of Borges to highlight modern writers' debt to asceticism. Ultimately, the enigmatic appeal of the renunciation story aligns it with the open-endedness of modern parables.Literatures of the Americas,2634-6028Latin American literatureComparative literatureLiterature, Modern20th centuryLatin American/Caribbean LiteratureComparative LiteratureTwentieth-Century LiteratureLatin American literature.Comparative literature.Literature, ModernLatin American/Caribbean Literature.Comparative Literature.Twentieth-Century Literature.800.098868.6209Jullien Dominiqueauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1370229BOOK9910733707503321Borges, Buddhism and World Literature3397862UNINA
