ROJAS C, Carlos E. Borges: A Textuality of the Encounter. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2011, vol.2, n.4, pp.55-70. ISSN 2145-8987.

Borges defines the text as an encounter with the reader, several times throughout his work. He does not describe it as an object, a thing among other things, but as an event, as a dialog. This article explores the implications of such a definition of the text. It connects what Borges says in his essays with his own practice of reading and writing, and with the numerous encounters that take place in his stories. It also explores some contact points between Borges and another philosopher of the encounter, Louis Althusser.
