520			_aIn Borges’ works, permeated with an encyclopaedic and yet very individual culture, psychoanalysis seems to have been completely ignored, that is, apart from a few hasty and often contemptuous references. Sometimes Borges opposes psychoanalysis and psychology, always to despise the first and exalt the second, whilst expressing his regard for the "psychologist" Jung. Probably this outlook came in part from his devotion to his father, who taught psychology inspired by William James. And yet Borges’ world, in spite of his personal scorn for psychoanalytic theory, is rich in symbolic architectures which are akin to dream and to wit, analysed by Freud as the complex and subtle production of an unconscious thought. The gap between the great authority of Borges and the remarkable success of psychoanalysis, characteristic of Argentinean culture, is thus perhaps not as wide as it appears.
