Jorge Luis Borges, Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius - Tlön's Disintegration Of Our World

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on how the fictional world of Tlön, in the space of a decade, captivates the people of Earth and begins to disintegrate the reality of our own world, replacing Earth and its cultures with those of Tlön To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Get Borges' Collected Fictions here - https://amzn.to/3xZnwHA
