Utopía y metafísica del tiempo en «Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius» de Jorge Luis Borges

This article examines Borges’ short story «Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius» and compares it with several Utopian texts within the Western tradition. It focuses on the configuration of the narrative time in the imaginary world of Tlön, following Augustine of Hippo’s and Paul Ricoeur’s philosophies. The analysis of the metaphysical theories of time and how Tlönians perceive and experience it allows us to talk about Tlön as a living metaphor of our world.
