Abstract

The following essay deals with food and other aspects of social ritual in Borges, the diary of Adolfo Bioy Casares, which focuses on the conversations and anecdotes that the author had after almost daily dinners with Jorge Luis Borges. It analyses how, according to these authors, food becomes more relevant in an aesthetic dimension and as a basis for social relationships of a particular social class with the world, than as a mere means of nutrition and sustenance.
