Abstract Maps: The Possible Logical Multiverse in 'Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius' by Jorge Luis Borges
Description
This article proposes a lecture of the story «Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius»
by Jorge Luis Borges analyzing, from a rhetorical-argumentative perspective, the
question of the logical multiverse. Considering this, the approach is grounded on
the possible worlds’ theory by Gottfried Leibniz and modal realism; together with
multiverse astronomical postulates. The reading of this story in particular as an
exemplification of the presented theoretical axis is pertinent, inasmuch as its
argument raises the possible human fictionality. Therefore, it is considered that
this work presents the problem of self-referentiality in the world (or universe)
when different logical reality layers are created.
