The WreckIgnitions Read. Stray strugglingly playful thoughts

[Jed Kelestron]

The interesting thing about the Borges story, "Pierre Menard, autor
del Quijote," is not that Menard reconceived Quijote without reading
the original, it is that he wrote it identically, line for line,
without reading the original, and that literary criticism
'reconceived' or re-interpreted those same words through a different
historical lens.
