description Jorge Luis Borges found an expressive and transcendental force in the existential depth of tango that is crystallized in his work. This paper proposes the examination of the relationship between time and space that, from tango, composed in Fervor de Buenos Aires, by Borges. From Borges’ own approaches to time, metaphysical foundations, approaches to tango, and Borgesian work, this paper examines the recovery of lost space through the poetic revaluation of time, very tango-style, in the poems of Fervor de Buenos Aires. In Fervor de Buenos Aires, the inner movement that the lyric subject, like the subject of tango, makes to rescue the identity of the instant is poetize. Consequently, Borges displays a metaphysical understanding of the emblematic places of tango, the reason why his conception of time is not ubiquitous and the subject of his poems, similar to the tangos, is turned to the encounter with timeless ideas of lost spaces.

Jorge Luis Borges encontró en la profundidad existencial del tango una fuerza expresiva y trascendental que cristalizó en su obra. Este artículo propone el examen de la relación tiempo y espacio que, desde el tango, compone en el poemario Fervor de Buenos Aires, de autor argentino. Desde los planteamientos del mismo Borges acerca del tiempo, fundamentos metafísicos, aproximaciones al tango y a la obra borgesiana, este artículo estudia la recuperación del espacio perdido a través de la revaloración poética del tiempo, muy al estilo del tango, en los poemas de Fervor de Buenos Aires. Así, en esta obra se poetiza el movimiento interior que el sujeto lírico, como el sujeto del tango, efectúa para rescatar la identidad del instante. En consecuencia, Borges despliega una comprensión metafísica de los lugares emblemáticos del tango, razón por la cual su concepción del tiempo no es ubicua y el sujeto de sus poemas, como el de los tangos, está volcado al encuentro con ideas intemporales de los espacios perdidos.
