Thanks to Google for reminding me that today is the 112th birthday of the great Jorge Luis Borges!!! Dig his writing about the Barbarian leader Doctulft:
‘Let us imagine Droctulft...not the individual Droctulft, who no doubt was unique and unfathomable (as all individuals are), but the generic type formed from him and many others by tradition, which is the effect of oblivion and memory.’
Happy birthday!!!
