Abstract
Jorge Luis Borges orchestrated the canonization of his work, culminating in his Obras completas. The traces of this editorial endeavor are effaced in what Borges conceived as his complete works. The analysis of the various editions of Para las seis cuerdas demonstrates that the rationale behind the editorial changes is a conscious effort to present a collection of milongas with a coherent vision of a homeric Argentinian past. Only a critical edition of Borgian texts would provide the basis for the study of the complex creative process and fissures in the canonic text which the author concealed in his Obras completas.
