This is a bibliography of works by Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet, and translator Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986).
Each year links to its corresponding "[year] in literature" article (for prose) or "[year] in poetry" article (for verse).
Original book-length publications
This list follows the chronology of original (typically Spanish-language) publication in books, based in part on the rather comprehensive (but incomplete) bibliography online at the Borges Center (originally the J. L. Borges Center for Studies & Documentation at the University of Aarhus, then at the University of Iowa, now—as of 2010—at the University of Pittsburgh). The following list focuses on book-length publication of original work (including collaborative work): it does not include individual short stories, poems, and translations published in magazines, nor does it include books (such as anthologies of fantasy and of Argentine literature) that Borges edited or co-edited. It also excludes several chapbooks, privately printed editions, etc. of under 50 pages each and does not attempt to identify first publication dates of individual stories, poems, etc. ISBNs refer to recent editions, not original publications. (Many English-language titles and ISBNs still missing. Some of the volumes might be better classified in terms of genre.) Fervor de Buenos Aires, 1923, poetry. Inquisiciones, 1925, essays. English title: Inquiries. Luna de Enfrente, 1925, poetry. El tamaño de mi esperanza, 1925, essays. El idioma de los argentinos, 1928, essays. Cuaderno San Martín, 1929, poetry.

Several web sources mis-attribute this as Historia universal de la infancia (which would be A Universal History of Childhood). Historia de la eternidad, 1936, essays.
