Resumen

Este ensayo aborda algunas de las relaciones que pueden trazarse entre J. M. Coetzee y Jorge Luis Borges, por un lado, y el concepto de Sur Global, por otro, ocupándose del reciente acercamiento de Coetzee a Latinoamérica. Se analiza el desarrollo de sus ideas sobre el concepto del Sur o “Sur real”, en oposición al “Sur mítico”, ilustrándose a través de un breve análisis del relato de Borges “El Sur” y la novela de Coetzee Disgrace. Estos dos textos nos ayudan a centrar el rechazo de Coetzee a la llamada “mirada del norte”, una visión occidentalizada del mundo dominada por la lengua inglesa, y su preferencia por el español como lengua en la que ha publicado inicialmente sus últimos libros.
