Number of works
1, summary
Zhang Zeng, a critic, combed the number of Borges' works and wrote: Many people think that Borges' works are few. Writer Yu Hua once said in an interview that Borges has only three books. In fact, this is not right. Borges is not a prolific writer, but his books are not few. Borges' complete works are pure literary works.
At least more than Kafka. The Complete Works of Kafka, which we have seen at present, is 10 volume, with more than 3.3 million words (Hebei Education Press, 1996, the first 1 version), among which essays, conversations, letters and diaries account for as many as 6 volumes, and these words are not strictly works, but Kafka's thoughts.
2. Collections contained in the complete works
The complete works include the following collections: poetry anthology: Passion of Buenos Aires, Moon in Front, Notes of Saint Martin, Poet, Another, Ode to the Shadow, Jin Hu, Deep Rose, Iron Coin, Night Story, Days and photo album.
Novel Volume: Biography of Little People, Collection of Novels, Alef and Brody Reports, Book of Sand and Shakespeare's Memory Prose Volume: evaristo Callego, Discussion Set, Eternal History, Discussion Set, Preface Integration, Borges Oral, Tanabata, Dante's Nine Theories, Manuscripts Collection. ***28 species. But this is not the real complete works. The preface of the publication says: "According to Borges' own wishes, there are no three collections: discussion collection (1925), scale of hope (1926) and Argentine (1928)". However, if we look at the Biography attached to the back of the book, we will find that there are far more than three books without the Complete Works.
3. Not collected in the complete works
In order to find out how many books Dr. Borges has written, I did some combing and sorted out a bibliography of all Borges' works. The following are the collections that are not included in the complete works of Zhejiang Edition: Poetry Collection: Red Melody; Selected Poems and Short Stories of Gaucho: The Gambler's Cards; Dream Book; Short Stories of Domec and Borges.
Prose collection: discussion collection (1925), my hope scale (1926), Argentine language (1928), classical Germanic literature, fantasy zoology textbook, book of heaven and hell, Buenos Aires language, poetry collection and prose collection: Adrogue cooperative novel: selected fantasy literature, Isidro. His Fate, Sisters in Eloisa, People on the Shore, Paradise for Believers, Germanic Literature in the Middle Ages, 3 poems, 3 novels, 7 essays and 65,438+poems. In other words, all Borges' works (including compilations) should exceed 50 kinds.
