Neither Borges nor Black Mirror will ever be the same again.' - Alf Seegert, Associate Professor, Department of English at University of Utah, USA Borges and Black Mirror convenes a dialogue between one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century, the philosophical fabulist Jorge Luis Borges, and one of the most important writers and producers of the twenty-first century, Charlie Brooker, whose Black Mirror series has become a milestone in an age of ?post-television? programming. The book?s introduction provides a detailed examination of the terms of engagement of Borges and Brooker and each of the chapters explores in a sustained way the resonances and affinities between one particular story by Borges and one particular episode of Black Mirror. The result is a series of essays that locate Brooker?s work with respect to a rich literary and philosophical tradition on the one hand and, on the other, demonstrate the relevance of Borges?s work for anyone who wishes to understand one of our most emblematic cultural artifacts in the age of Netflix. . 410 0$aLiteratures of the Americas,$x2634-6028 606 $aLatin American literature 606 $aLiterature, Modern$x20th century 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aLatin American/Caribbean Literature 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 606 $aFilm and Television Studies 615 0$aLatin American literature. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern$x20th century. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 14$aLatin American/Caribbean Literature. 615 24$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aFilm and Television Studies. 676 $a860.80358 676 $a800 700 $aLaraway$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01370149 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910733727403321 996 $aBorges and Black Mirror$93397688 997 $aUNINA
