"The volume stages a passage from Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius' by Jorge Luis Borges. [It] uses the form of a quiz book. To this typographical guessing in Borges' story some pictures illustrating the text have been added." (p. 200)
"QUIZ is the story of Tlön's doctrine of materialism or rather its doctrine of immaterialism. And so it is at the heart of Borges' fiction and is the centerpiece of the novella's philosophical speculation. It begins 'Amongst the doctrines of Tlön, none has occasioned greater scandal that the doctrine of materialism'." (p. 100) (from the catalogue) |
