Abstract [es]

En el presente artículo investigaré la relación entre la paradoja y la metalepsis narrativa, basándome en el cuento “El otro” de Jorge Luis Borges. Hay en la metalepsis una dimensión paradójica a causa de la transgresión del límite entre el mundo del narrador y el mundo narrado, dos mundos que deberían permanecer ontológicamente separados. Sin embargo, hay algunas subclases de metalepsis en las que la transgresión no es de tipo ontológico. El cuento de Borges me parece ejemplar para ilustrar y problematizar las clasificaciones de la metalepsis y para mostrar lo débil que es establecer un tipo de narración sobre la base del criterio de la paradoja.

Abstract [en]

In this article I investigate the relation between paradox and narrative metalepsis, on the basis of Jorge Luis Borges’s short story “The Other”. There is a paradoxical dimension in metalepsis because of the transgression of the borders between the narrator’s world and the narrated world, two worlds which should be ontologically separated. However, there are some subclasses of metalepses in which the transgression is not of an ontological kind. Borges’s story is exemplary to illustrate and problematize the classifications of metalepsis and to show how uncertain it could be to classify a narration type on the basis of the paradox criterion.
