QUEZADA PACHECO, Homero. Discourse rewriting and appropriation in Manual de zoología fantástica. Latinoamérica [online]. 2013, n.57, pp.99-124. ISSN 2448-6914.

In the Manual de zoología fantástica, Jorge Luis Borges displayed a wide relation of historical, literary, sacred, philosophical, and mythological sources, both from East and West. Before the natural consideration of identifying such catalog as the product of a collective imagination, Borges, nevertheless, was capable to pervade it with his peculiar style through passages, subjects and recurrent obsessions. This Article reveals that, for Borges, a text that is repeated is susceptible to become in a different text, that the rewriting evolves in creation, and that the work of others may transform in the germ of a personal and intimate representation.

Palabras llave : Jorge Luis Borges; Fantastic Literature; Animals and Literature; Rewriting and Literature; Appropriation of the Discourse.
