Borges and I

What is the significance of the dual identities presented in the essay, the “I” and “Borges”? How do they interact with each other, and what does this duality represent?

How does Borges explore the relationship between an author’s inner self and their public persona? In what ways can an author’s work shape the public’s perception of them?

What are the implications of the “Borges” persona continuing to exist through his writings after his death? How does this relate to the themes of immortality and the persistence of one’s identity? Does this idea link to any of Borges’s other works?
