La tarde invade la avenida: Tiempo y nostalgia en Joyce, T.S. Eliot y Borges

Authors

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to provide an intertextual reading of James Joyce, T. S. Eliot and Jorge Luis Borges, focused mainly on the interpretation of the representations of time around images of sunset and evening in “Eveline”, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock and selected poems from Fervor de Buenos Aires. Such representations of temporality are analysed on the basis of the modern conception of time, the relationship between present and past, and the nostalgic mood that emerges from that conception. As a result of the writing of the evening and its relationship with space, I suggest that Borges alternates the characterization of the phenomenon according to the agency and passiveness that Joyce and Eliot bestow to it respectively.
