That foundational pulse is at the origin of a tradition that spans centuries and genres, from epic ballads and blind romances to current forms like rap. However, three thousand years of cultural distance make it impossible today to reproduce the original impact of those recitations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1025\" data-end=\"1475\"\u003eAs Jorge Luis Borges pointed out, every translation is actually a new literary work.
