A window open onto Borges' world
Starting from the story "Funes, or of Memory," Danilo Selvaggi (A Room in the World. Borges, Ireneo Funes and the Vertigo of Nature, Pandion), Director General of LIPU, proposes an ecological reading of Borges's work: Funes's extraordinary attention to every detail of the world becomes a starting point for reflection on biodiversity, our way of observing nature, and the contemporary ecological crisis. Funes's room can be read as a window onto the world: a secluded space from which the gaze opens onto the richness of life, inviting us to grasp its wonder and fragility together. In conversation with him is Massimiliano Galli.
