This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Averröes’ Search" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the islamic philosopher's failure to determine the meanings of "comedy" and "tragedy" in his commentary on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. Even after seeing and hearing about several instances of something like drama, he remains unable to make the association between what Aristotle discusses in his work and dramatic play.
