Borges and beyond

Dr Miguel Gomes has recently given a paper at the 31st International Conference of the Spanish Society for Medieval English Language and Literature (SELIM). Entitled 'Borges and Beyond: Reception and Translation of The Old English Dialogues of Solomon and Saturn in the Spanish Speaking World', Miguel's paper explored Borges’ interest and understanding of these rather unusual Anglo-Saxon texts featuring King Solomon and the pagan Saturn. Miguel explored Borges’ engagement with these texts from a perspective taking into account both recent scholarship and a number of translations of the Dialogues into other modern languages.
