The Language of Buenos Aires (the Complete Works of Borges)
by (argentina) Jorge Luis Borges Jose Edmundo Clemente
About This Novel
The Language of Buenos Aires is a collaboration between Borges and José Edmundo Clemente. It contains a series of articles written by the two of them that explore the characteristics of the Argentinian language. From the fresh and natural market language to the poet's moving words and phrases, from Yangchun Baixue's articles to the slang and jargon of the Lower Riba people. There is a common spirit between them: the emotional projection of the market. Local language is the root, which goes deep into the soil, absorbs the juice and nourishes the mother tongue. The author opposes the rigid and inflexible discussion of language institutes and emphasizes that language is action and life. It rings in our ears every day and is our emotion, our home, our trust and the friendship that comes from conversation.
