In part 1 of episode 15: Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius, Esmé and Kim discuss a fascinating short story by Jorge Luis Borges, subjective idealism, the relationship between language and thought, and weird thought experiments involving coins. Join us soon for part 2, in which we will be looking at this story through the lens of stylistics, specifically focalisation, modality, and speech presentation.
