A philosophical approach to understanding the meanings expressed in literature and art works, in particular through examining the work of artist Xul Solar and poet Jorge Luis Borges, amongst others. "This book brings together a series of texts, some of which were previously published and others unpublished until now. Originally, some of them were lectures given at home or abroad. The themes, the works analyzed, the artists and the authors I address are diverse, but not dispersed. The essays go through different paths, but in all of them the mystery of the spirit and the frustration of the language of representation are present, which are nothing but different ways of expressing the same thing. Consequently, the unsolvable oppositions of existence, chaos and the cosmos, representation and metaphor, person and identity will always vibrate. The idea that serves as the common thread of these pages is to apprehend the persistence of certain images and metaphors that were revealed and consolidated in the culture, while it was consolidated as an identity. I understand culture in its broadest sense, as a universal human creation, structured from its mythical origin to the vast and analytical expression of the knowledge, beyond the characteristic notes that it can embody in each society, in each region, in each continent." -Page 11.
