- Title
Map, Matryoshkas, Ouroboros: Three Types of Borgesian Framing in Trust.
- Authors
TRAUVITCH, RHONA
- Abstract
The article explores three types of Borgesian framing in the novel "Trust" by Rhona Trauvitch, focusing on overtaking, eternal recursion through matryoshkas, and perpetual self-consumption represented by an ouroboros. Topics include Borges's use of framing devices, the political implications of these devices, and their manifestation in the novel's themes of truth, capitalism, and the insatiable nature of consumption.
