Abstract

Allusions to John the Baptist (alias Daniel) in Jorge Luis Borges' El Evangelio según Marcos.

This essay seeks to show – by the historical-critical method and the biblical methodology – a well-founded reference to John the Baptist alias Daniel in J.L. Borges short story El Evangelio según Marcos. The rewritten character, due to similarities and differences, results effective at narratological and semiotic level as well as the whole evangelical rewriting.
