Keywords: Borges; Kafka; Jewish Tradition; subversion

Summary/Abstract: Starting with references to sacred texts (Torah, Talmud) and the notion that Judaism is constituted by a line of texts and not of blood, I move on to the heterodoxy that, among other aspects, links Borges with Kafka and ways of reading them through their links with philosophy, mathematics, architecture, Judaism, tradition and, especially, through their subversive questioning of all that is.
