La poesía como un preludio a la filosofía: algunas reflexiones sobre un poema tardío de Borges
1Department of Philosophy. Trent University. dmcdermi@trentu.ca
En este artículo me propongo analizar un poema breve de Borges y relacionarlo con una idea metafilosófica de Platón; a saber, que la filosofía empieza con el asombro. Mi tesis fundamental es que hay poemas -y, en mi opinión, los versos de Borges que discutiré constituyen un ejemplo admirable- que pueden funcionar como un preludio a la filosofía en la medida en que pueden despertar el asombro platónico en los lectores capaces de experimentarlo.
Palabras clave: metafilosofía; el yo; posibilidad; costumbre
In this essay I propose not only to analyze a poem by Jorge Luis Borges, but also to connect that poem with a metaphilosophical idea of Plato’s -namely, the view that philosophy begins in wonder. For I argue that some poetry -Borges’ brief poem being an admirable example- can serve as a prelude to philosophy by arousing Platonic wonder in readers capable of experiencing it.
Key words: metaphilosophy; the self; possibility; custom
