Devant la Loi
Devant la LoiDevant la porte de la Loi se tient un gardien.Ce gardien voit arriver un homme de la campagne qui sollicite accs la Loi.Mais le gardien dit qu'il ne peut le laisser entrer maintenant.L'homme rflchit, puis demande si, alors, il pourra entrer plus tard. C'est possible, dit le gardien, mais pas maintenant. Comme la grande porte de la Loi est ouverte, comme toujours, et que le gardien s'carte, l'homme se penche pour regarder l'intrieur.Q…
Der Prozess
Grundlos wird Josef K. an seinem 30. Geburtstag verhaftet und verhört. Die Umstände sind grotesk, niemand kennt das Gesetz, und das Gericht bleibt anonym. Die ‚Schuld‘, erfährt Josef K., haftet ihm an, ohne dass er dagegen etwas tun könnte. Verbissen, aber erfolglos versucht er, sich gegen die zunehmende Absurdität und Verstrickung zu wehren, schlägt jede Warnung vor weiterer Gegenwehr in den Wind und wird schließlich ein Jahr später vor den Tore…

Beim Bau der chinesischen Mauer
In der Strafkolonie: Erzählung (1919)
Kafka’s short story dramatizes the problematic relationship between power and justice by channeling parabolic imagery from the depths of our social existence and psyche. The Kafka expert Renate Weiner and the Florentine criminal jurist Robert Bartoli, a leading Italian scholar of law and literature, offer commentaries on Kafka’s text from their respective disciplines.
The Trial
A successful professional man wakes up one morning to find himself under arrest for an offence which is never explained. The mysterious court which conducts his trial is outwardly co-operative, but capable of horrific violence. Faced with this ambiguous authority, Josef K. gradually succumbs to its psychological pressure. He consults various advisers without escaping his fate. Was there some way out that he failed to see? Kafka’s unfinished novel…
In the Cathedral
K. was given the task of showing a very important Italian business associate of the bank, who was visiting the city for the first time, some of its artistic treasures. It was a task which at any other time he would have regarded as...
In the Penal Colony
‘ It is a remarkable apparatus,’ said the officer to the enquiring traveller,* surveying the apparatus with some admiration in his eyes, though it must have been long familiar to him. It seemed that it was only out of courtesy that the...
The metamorphosis and other stories
The Man who Disappeared (America)
Entering New York harbour, the young immigrant Karl Rossmann sees the Statue of Liberty, ‘her arm with the sword stretched upward’. This forbidding introduction sets the tone for Kafka’s narrative about an innocent European astray in an ultra-modern America that is both a fantasy and an object of social satire. Expelled by his family after seduction by a maidservant, Karl finds in America a series of surrogate families, but he continues to get in…
A Companion to the Works of Franz Kafka
No other 20th-century writer of German-language literature has been as fully accepted into the canon of world literature as Franz Kafka. The unsettlingly, enigmatically surreal world of Kafka's novels and stories continues to fascinate readers and critics of each new generation, who in turn continue to find new readings. One thing has become clear: although all theories attempt to appropriate Kafka, there is no one key to his work. The challenge …
