Before revision: With this quotation of Josiah Royce, Borges describes a further conundrum of when the map is contained within the territory, infinite regress: Neil Gaiman retells the parable in reference to storytelling in Fragile Things (it was originally to appear in American Gods): The development of electronic media blurs the line between map and territory by allowing for the simulation of ideas as encoded in electronic signals, as Baudrillard argues in Simulacra and Simulation (1994, p. 1): The philosopher David Schmidtz draws on this distinction in his book Elements of Justice, apparently deriving it from Wittgenstein's private language argument.
