Abstract

THE HOUSE OF ASTERIONis a beautiful contemporary short story by Argentinean poet and writer, JORGE LUIS BORGES. In this story Borges creates a new myth (or a meta-myth) using an old one. The story is about MINOTAUR, a mythological creature in the ancient Greece with the head of a bull and the body of a man, who was imprisoned by King Minos of Crete in a gigantic LABYRINTH. MINOTAUR was eventually killed by the Athenian hero, Theseus. Borges reconstructs the story and writes it in first person narrative mode.According to Borges, the modern man is captured in the LABYRINTHs that are the results of modernism. Yet he can free himself, all he needs is some courage.
