Abstract
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to study Borges's world vision and the philosophical and mistical influence of the oriental culture: Averroes, the Brothers of Sincerity, Alfarabi, Avicena, 'Aṭṭār, Umar Khayyam and Algacel are present in the main lines of his world vision, as much as the problem of unity and multiplicity, the inferior world as mirror of the superior one, the Ẓāhir and the Bāṭin, the opposition between the human time and the divine one, the predestination and the free will, the Aleph... On the other hand, the similarity between Borges's world vision and the one of the Andalusian mistic Ibn 'Arabī imposes a comparison between both of them.
