Conclusion: Renunciation Stories and Wandering Kings. 330 $aThis book follows the renunciation story in Borges and beyond, arguing for its centrality as a Borgesian compositional trope and as a Borgesian prism for reading a global constellation of texts. The renunciation story at the heart of Buddhism, that of a king who leaves his palace to become an ascetic, fascinated Borges because of its cross-cultural adaptability and metamorphic nature, and because it resonated so powerfully across philosophy, politics and aesthetics. From the story and its many variants, Borges?s essays formulated a 'morphological' conception of literature (borrowing the idea from Goethe), whereby a potentially infinite number of stories were generated by transformation of a finite number of 'archetypes'. The king-and-ascetic encounter also tells a powerful political story, setting up a confrontation between power and authority; Borges?s own political predicament is explored against the rich background of truth-telling renouncers. In its poetic variant, the renunciation archetype morphs into stories about art and artists, with renunciation a key requirement of the creative process: the discussion weaves in and out of Borges to highlight modern writers? debt to asceticism. Ultimately, the enigmatic appeal of the renunciation story aligns it with the open-endedness of modern parables. 410 0$aLiteratures of the Americas,$x2634-6028 606 $aLatin American literature 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aLiterature, Modern$x20th century 606 $aLatin American/Caribbean Literature 606 $aComparative Literature 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 615 0$aLatin American literature. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern$x20th century. 615 14$aLatin American/Caribbean Literature. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 676 $a800.098 676 $a868.6209 700 $aJullien$b Dominique$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01370229 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910733707503321 996 $aBorges, Buddhism and World Literature$93397862 997 $aUNINA
