LabyrinthsLabyrinths show up repeatedly in Borges' stories, particularly in his collection The Garden of Forking Paths. These labyrinths are not always literal in their meaning: for example, in A Survey of the Works of Herbert Quain, the labyrinthine nature of The God of the Labyrinth appears to come more from the structure of the book's false ending than the actual substance of the plot (108).As a symbol, the labyrinth is ideal for tackling concepts of free will and fate, which Borges is fond of treating. From within a labyrinth, it is virtually impossible to conceive of the maze's overall structure; one can take many different paths which lead to the same place, even if there are some dead ends. It is also unclear when one exits the labyrinth if that was the only exit, or if different paths lead to different exits. These notions of alternate paths with intersections and potentially inevitable outcomes enable one to meditate on what precisely our ability to choose accomplishes, and if free will and fate are mutually exclusive.
