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.

Biographies of Franz Kafka Have Become So Common That They
Murray, Nicholas. Kafka: A Biography. New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 2004. 432 pp. 31 illustrations. $30.00 cloth. Biographies of Franz Kafka have become so common that their publication seems self- evident: a sub-genre whose further propagation requires no particular explanation. Gone are the days when a Kafka biography needed to rationalize its existence by pointing out the limitations of existing works and the originality of its new approach. The present book, as its generic title hints, does not introduce any major discoveries, revisions, or otherwise surprising new perspectives to what is known about Kafka’s life. (The press release justifies the book as “the first biography of Kafka in English for 20 years,” but even this is not correct.) Nonetheless, for the general reader Murray has produced an excellent book: well informed, sensitive, and highly readable. The major strength of this biography lies in the pervasive fairness and sound judgment of its account. Those characteristics may sound modest or old-fashioned, but it is no small feat to maneuver between the stereotypes and myths that have accumulated around Kafka’s life. Murray does this with considerable skill: Kafka appears here neither as the representative man of modernist alienation, nor as the prophet of impending social catastrophe, nor as a guilt-ridden neurotic. Rather, Murray’s Kafka is a fascinating and attractive individual who was able to produce works of genius out of and despite his complex emotional constitution. This refreshing tone is set early on: Murray writes that “…to see Kafka as a quivering neurasthenic, someone who knew only how to suffer, would be a travesty. -

KAREL WASSERMANN (Prague, SSR) Some Observations on The
KAREL WASSERMANN (Prague, �SSR) Some Observations on the Prague Circle Margarita Pazi. Fünf Autoren des Prager Kreises. "Würzburger Hochschul- schriften zur neuren Deutschen Literaturgeschichte, Bd. 3." Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang, 1978. 315 pp. sFr. 55,-(paper). The five authors considered in this work are Oskar Baum (1883-1941 ), Paul Kornfeld (1889-1942), Ernst Sommer (1889-1955), Ernst Weiss (1884- 1940), and Ludwig Winder (1889-1946)-all well known to those familiar with the literature of interwar German-Jewish Prague, and all connected, as their life and death dates show, by strong chronological affinities. In review- ing this book I will sidestep most of the literary text in order to concentrate on the key sixty pages headed by the phrase, "The Prague of the 'Prague Cir- " cle' (hereafter abbreviated as P.C.). This chapter is so intriguing that I am grateful for the opportunity to say something about this controversial theme. Mrs. Margarita Pazi has set for herself the task of revising (or completing) the memoirs of Max Brod, which were published in 1968 when he was eighty- four years old. What is evident, alas !, is her complete devotion to Brod, to his idiosyncrasies and feuds, and her indiscriminate reliance upon "widow's tales" (see her Acknowledgments) and her nostalgia for the German-Jewish cultural milieu of Prague. To discuss Austria-Hungary, "the kettle of nations," and particularly the "Prague" phenomenon in this context reminds one of Venice, the city of lagoons. The national, religious, social, and cultural factors are labyrinthine. The author seems adroit at posing questions, staging the scene, and demon- strating the controversiality of the protagonists. -

Reading Kafka in Prague: the Reception of Franz Kafka Between the East and the West During the Cold War
! ! ! ! Reading Kafka in Prague: The Reception of Franz Kafka between the East and the West during the Cold War Veronika Tuckerova Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! © 2012 Veronika Tuckerova All rights reserved ! Abstract Reading Kafka in Prague: The Reception of Franz Kafka between the East and the West during the Cold War Veronika Tuckerova This dissertation explores the transmission, reception, and appropriation of Franz Kafka in Czechoslovakia during the Cold War, against the background of the contemporary international readings of Kafka, especially in West Germany. The first chapter examines Paul Eisner’s translation of the Trial in the context of his influential triple “ghetto theory” and from the perspective of his contemporary translation discourse as well as recent translation theories. The second chapter focuses on the reception of Gustav Janouch’s Conversations with Kafka, and the reasons why this controversial text was welcomed in the West and dismissed in the East as a forgery. The chapter uses new archival discoveries about Janouch and discusses questions of witness and testimony. The role of “witness” took an ominous turn in the case of Eduard Goldstücker, who is the focus of the third chapter. Goldstücker was tried in the Slánsk! show trials in the early 1950s and forced to testify against Slánsk!. The chapter explores how Goldstücker attempted to come to terms with his past through reading of Kafka. The secret police files that were kept on him provide new insights on Goldstücker’s published texts, public persona, and the Liblice Conference that succeeded in rehabilitating Kafka in 1963. -

Any attempt simply to extract his opinions or to measure his verdicts against accepted critical opinion has been eschewed, as a misinterpretation of Kraus's whole purpose. Since his polemics were two- pronged attacks - on style and character - his conceptions of language and personality are outlined, and also related to his demand that the polemicist should embody artistic values. As a background to his demand for unity of man and work, the construction of his persona and the dualism in his thought and its implications for his critical procedure are discussed. -
München Max Trecker MAX BROD: DIE „ERFINDUNG“ DES PRAGER
446 Bohemia Band 54 (2014) lauten können. Als Desiderat wurde von den Teilnehmern der Abschlussdiskussion eine noch stärkere Fokussierung auf Umweltgeschichte im engeren Sinn bezeichnet. Die Perspektive der Migranten selbst und ihre Wahrnehmung der Umgebung sei zu kurz gekommen. Die Forschung zu anderen Regionen wie den USA, so das Ergebnis der Diskussion, sei hier bereits wesentlich tiefgründiger und umfangreicher. München Max Trecker MAX BROD: DIE „ERFINDUNG“ DES PRAGER KREISES Franz Kafkas Freund und Herausgeber seiner Werke, Chronist der Prager deutschen Literatur, Redakteur der Tageszeitung „Prager Tagblatt“, aber auch Philosoph und erfolgreicher Schriftsteller, der als Moses und Casanova in einer Person bezeichnet wurde, Dichter und Dramatiker, Agitator der tschechischen Kultur und überzeugter Zionist, all das war Max Brod (1884-1968). Mit seinem Konzept des Prager Kreises, zu dem er neben sich selbst auch Felix Weltsch, Oskar Baum, Franz Kafka sowie nach dessen Tod Ludwig Winder zählte, muss sich jeder, der sich mit der Prager deutschen Literatur beschäftigt auseinandersetzen. Vom 26.-29. Mai 2014 fand in der Deutschen Botschaft in Prag und im Goethe-Institut die Konferenz „Max Brod. ‚Die Erfindung‘ des Prager Kreises“ statt, veranstaltet vom Moses Mendelssohn Zentrum für europäisch-jüdische Studien (Potsdam), dem Institut für Germanische Studien der Karls-Universität Prag und dem Institut für Musikwissenschaft Weimar- Jena. Das Konzept der Konferenz stammte von Steffen Höhne (Jena, Weimar), Hans Gerd Koch (Wuppertal), Julius H. Schoeps (Potsdam), Hans-Dieter Zimmermann (Berlin) und Anna-Dorothea Ludewig (Potsdam). Steffen Höhne stellte den Prager Kreis als mediale Konstruktion vor. Er wies dar- auf hin, dass Brod mit diesem nicht nur eine literarisch-topografische Verankerung gelang, sondern auch die Schaffung eines Forums für die jüdische Identität und die Durchsetzung von Deutungsmustern, mit denen er den Stadtraum gleichsam kontu- rierte. -
Conversations with Kafka
CONVERSATIONS WITH KAFKA NOTES AND REMINISCENCES BY GUSTAV JANOUCH WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY MAX BROD TRANSLATED BY GORONWY REES DEREK VERSCHOYIB THIRTEEN PARK PLACE • ST JAMES's LONDON SWI First published m 1953 by Derek Verschoyle Limited 13 Park Place • St James’s • London SWl Printed in Great Britain by Richard Clay and Company Ltd Bungay • Suffolk All rights reserved PREFACE MAX brod’s introduction and Gustav Janouch’s opening sentences to this book are in themselves sufficient explanation ofits genesis and ofits place in Kafka’s hfe. Indeed, in view of these two authors’ personal friendship with Kafka, and Dr Brod’s unrivalled knowledge ofhis hfe and his work, any further comment may seem unnecessary and even impertinent. Yet to some readers at least the local setting of these Conversations with may un familiar Kafka be , and some aspects of them surprismg, and to such readers an ad- ditional word of introduction may not be unhelpful. The Conversations, for all their directness and simplicity, are com- piled with such literary skill that they seem to convey not only Kafka’s words, gestures, physical appearance, tone ofvoice, but al- so the very air oftime and place and circumstance in which Kafka and his young friend took there walks together. This atmosphere which they breathe is a very special one, perhaps now never to be recovered; only less vivid than the impression they give ofKafka’s personality is the sense ofthe dty ofPrague itself, to which Kafka was at once so native and so alien. In one ofthe conversations Kaf- ka says that the distance from the Karpfengasse, in theJewish quar- ter, to his homeland is immeasurably far, but from the Jewish quarter to the Teinkirche is much, much farther; and his remark seems to crystallize everything which both bound hmi to Prague and alienated him from it.
