THE SHOCK OF RECOGNITION Karl Llewellyn once said that there are always two or more "technically correct" answers to any serious legal question, mutu­ ally contradictory and pointing in opposite directions in a given case.1 He meant that a court can almost always find a technically acceptable way of rationalizing whatever result it wishes to reach. A lot of time is spent in law school in gaining an appreciation of this so-called logical process. Law students learn hundreds of general rules, each with its exceptions; they learn the canons of statutory construction, each with an equal and opposite canon; they learn to manipulate precedent-to analogize cases when favorable, to dis­ tinguish them when not, often by invoking factual distinctions that might strike anyone but a lawyer as irrelevant.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • Friend Or Foe?
    Who Goes There: Friend or Foe? June 1993 OTA-ISC-537 NTIS order #PB93-218915 GPO stock #052-003-01328-2 -— Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of lkchnology Assessment, Who Goes There: Friend or Foe?, OTA-ISC-537 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, June 1993). Foreword he recent Persian Gulf War focused attention on the problem of fratricide, or “friendly fire” casualties among combat units. Twenty-four percent of U.S. combat fatalities in that conflict were due to friendly fire. The House Armed T Services Committee requested that OTA assess the technology and techniques available to reduce this tragic loss of life. Although friendly fire has often been dismissed in the military literature as an insignificant contributor to overall combat losses, in those few historical cases for which good data are available, estimated friendly fire losses have accounted for at least 10 percent of total losses. Friendly fire has been an important-and under-appreciated-source of combat deaths. Combat is confusing, complex, and deadly. Friendly fire casualties can probably never be eliminated, but several measures can reduce them. Application of new and existing technology can make identification of friendly forces on the battlefield more reliable; improved communication can reduce confusion on the battlefield; and better training can help military personnel make crucial, rapid decisions under the extreme stress of combat. Congress faces several decisions related to reducing friendly fire. These include: the choice of best technical approaches to pursue; the allocation of resources between systems that are devoted exclusively to reducing friendly fire and other systems—for example, better navigation and communication devices--that may reduce friendly fire in indirect and less visible ways; the best mix of near-term deployments and longer term research and development; and the need for cooperation and coordination among the military Services and with allies.

  • Complete Stories by Franz Kafka
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka Back Cover: "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • Acercamiento Psicológico De Franz Kafka a Través De Su Vida Y Obra
    https://doi.org/10.23913/ricsh.v8i16.174 Artículos Científicos Acercamiento psicológico de Franz Kafka a través de su vida y obra Psychological Approach to Franz Kafka Trough his Life and Work Abordagem psicológica de Franz Kafka através de sua vida e obra Eduardo de la Fuente Rocha Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, México [email protected] Resumen Un ambiente de ausencias, muertes y desatenciones fueron el crisol donde Kafka gestó una desazón psíquica interna constante, que oscilaba entre su miedo a morir y su rechazo a vivir, en un ambiente que percibía limitante, impositivo, autoritario y despótico, carente de orientación y cariño. Tal percepción de su medio favoreció en el escritor sentimientos de minusvalía y dependencia, sintiéndose unas veces incapaz y despreciable y otras desatento y culpable, lo que lo llevó a aislarse y a autolimitarse, a sentirse invalidado y a evitar el cumplimiento de compromisos y responsabilidades. Sin embargo, a pesar de todo, logró finalmente la aceptación de sí mismo al conciliar las grandes diferencias que habitaban en su mente. Kafka con su obra y su vida invita al lector a lograr un acuerdo psíquico personal para la convivencia diaria con uno mismo. Palabras clave: angustia de abandono, arte, madre ausente, padre autoritario, psicología. Vol. 8, Núm. 16 Julio - Diciembre 2019 Abstract An atmosphere of absences, deaths and inattention was the crucible where Kafka created a constant internal psychic distress, which oscillated between his fear of dying and his refusal to live, in an environment that perceived limitation, tax, authoritarian and despotic, lacking orientation and sweetie. Such perception of their environment favored in the writer feelings of disability and dependence feeling, sometimes incapacitated and despicable and other inattentive and guilty, which led to a step and a self limiting, avoiding the fulfillment of duties and responsibilities of the state of disability.

  • Enthymema XIX 2017
    Enthymema XIX 2017 All That Was Lost. German Life in Kafka’s Prague Before World War I, During the War, and At Its End Anthony Northey Wolfville, Canada Abstract In this paper I want to trace briefly how Franz Kafka reacted to some salient cultural features of his time. I will select segments of his writings which I believe reflect his view, or even his characterization of the three main historical periods he lived through: pre-World War I, the war years 1914 to 1918, and five and one half of the postwar years. Of course, this is by no means a complete, thorough discussion of those periods and his works that I mention. Keywords Contact Modern, Technology, Bureaucracy, War [email protected] In Franz Kafka’s teenage years in the Old City Gymnasium in Prague, his student days and the first seven years (until 1914) in his job at the Workers’ Accident Insurance Company (Arbeiter-Unfall-Versicherungs-Anstalt) the world around him was going through radical changes. With ever more belligerent, strident nationalism western superpowers vied with one another for hegemony in the world, for colonies and for domination of the high seas. Yet while this nationalistic competition was going on and grabbing the headlines of newspapers, the populations of those western countries, many of them autocratic empires or kingdoms, embraced an internationalism. Of course, one might immediately think of the international socialist movement; however, using Kafka’s Prague as an example, I would like to focus away from the political field on the internationalism which often manifested itself in many areas of daily life and culture, an internationalism which was very open and also – in some ways and sometimes – provided liberals a way of presenting a culture counter to government sponsored nationalism.

  • Kafka: Uma Habilidade Necessária
    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS PROGRAMA EM TEORIA DA LITERATURA KAFKA: UMA HABILIDADE NECESSÁRIA NUNO AMADO Mestrado em Teoria da Literatura 2008 UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS PROGRAMA EM TEORIA DA LITERATURA KAFKA: UMA HABILIDADE NECESSÁRIA Nuno Amado Mestrado em Teoria da Literatura Dissertação orientada pela Professora Doutora Fernanda Gil Costa Lisboa 2008 1 Agradecimentos Ao olhar para trás, para o início desta aventura que termina agora, vejo um adolescente com umas quantas ideias imberbes, com algumas intuições confusas, entusiasmado mas indeciso, confiante mas envergonhado. Hoje sou outro. Entre mim e o que fui, entre o que sou agora e o que era então, passaram dois anos, uma tese e pessoas que merecem toda a minha consideração. É a essa “ínclita geração”, a essas pessoas que não poderia deixa de lembrar, que estas palavras se destinam. O meu sincero obrigado ao Professor Miguel Tamen, pelo génio, pelo rigor, pela dedicação a este aprendiz, por tudo; ao Professor António Feijó, pela inspiração, pela modesta imodéstia das suas aulas; ao Professor João Figueiredo, pela simpatia, pela disponibilidade inexcedível; à Professora Fernanda Gil Costa, pela generosidade com que aceitou e acompanhou este orientando, pelos sábios conselhos, pela paciência. A todos eles devo, acima de tudo, a descoberta de que “as árvores, os rios, as pedras são cousas que verdadeiramente existem”. O meu muito obrigado também aos meus colegas, àqueles que percorreram este caminho comigo e que viveram com a mesma intensidade esta aventura, àqueles que já o tinham percorrido e que me ajudaram a perceber quais os trilhos certos e, sobretudo, à Ana Cláudia: foi a ela, entre estes, que coube a maior fatia de paciência para me aturar e quem mais colaborou com o que fiz.
