An English translation of the stories by Andrew Hurley was published in Collected Fictions.[1] ContentThe collection contains only four short stories,[1][2] making it Borges' shortest anthology. These are (original titles in italics):[2]
"August 25, 1983", the first story of the collection, is about Borges encountering an older version of himself at the last minutes of his life[3] (it is similar to Borges' previous story "The Other", from the collection The Book of Sand, in which a younger and an older Borges also meet).[3] In "Blue Tigers", the narrator gets hold of a group of mysterious blue stones whose number continuously multiplies and divides when one is not looking (retaking the themes of his previous stories "The Zahir", "The Disk", and "The Book of Sand": a direct confrontation with the inconceivable, in the form of an impossible object). "The Rose of Paracelsus" illustrates the old dispute between faith and incredulity.[1][2] And finally, the titular story "Shakespeare's Memory" (Borges' very last story)[4][5] is about a man who is given the memory of William Shakespeare,[3] enabling him to peer into the playwright's most secret thoughts, but also overloading him to the point of slowly forgetting his own life.[6][5][7] Borges got the idea for this last story when, at eighty years of age, he dreamed that a faceless man offered him the memory of Shakespeare in a hotel room.[4] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://ofblog.blogspot.com/2007/05/shakespeares-memory.html |title=Shakespeare's Memory |author=Larry |date=May 8, 2007 |work= |publisher= |accessdate=17 February 2010}} {{Jorge Luis Borges}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.sololiteratura.com/bor/borlamemoriadeshak.htm |title=La memoria de Shakespeare (1983)|author= |date= |work= |publisher=Sololiteratura |accessdate=17 February 2010|language=es}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.ucm.es/info/especulo/numero11/teob_mem.html |title=La memoria de la escritura |author=Dr. Daniel Gustavo Teobaldi |year=1999 |work= |publisher= |accessdate=16 February 2010|language=es}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |title=Shakespeare y el último relato: La memoria ajena |author=Ricardo Piglia |newspaper=Clarín |date= |url=http://www.clarin.com/diario/especiales/Borges/html/Piglia.html|language=es}} 5. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://baires.elsur.org/archives/30-days-with-borges-day-4-shakespeares-memory-everything-and-nothing/ |title=30 Days with Borges: Day 4, Shakespeare’s Memory, Everything and Nothing |author= |date=October 24, 2006 |work=30 Days with Borges |publisher= |accessdate=17 February 2010}} 6. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://es.shvoong.com/books/408602-la-memoria-shakespeare/ |title=La memoria de Shakespeare |author=Baudolino |date=September 27, 2006 |work= |publisher=Shvoong |accessdate=17 February 2010|language=es}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.elsigma.com/site/detalle.asp?IdContenido=3935 |title=Borges y el fantasma de la realidad |author=Oscar Zentner |date=2003-11-21 |work= |publisher=El Sigma |accessdate=17 February 2010|language=es}} 3 : 1983 short story collections|Fantasy short story collections|Short story collections by Jorge Luis Borges |
