  • 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.

  • Franz Kafka, the Helmsman (Ca
    Facilitation Notes Franz Kafka, The Helmsman (ca. 1915–1920) Introduction: Franz Kafka (1883–1924) was a Czech Jewish writer whose stories use dark humor to explore themes of absurdity and social alienation. Although widely regarded as one of the major figures of twentieth-century literature, Kafka’s work went largely unnoticed T during his lifetime. After studying law, Kafka entered professional life as an insurance company clerk. Kafka’s most famous works, such as The Trial and The Metamorphosis, explore what Kafka saw as the surreal and sometimes nightmarish qualities of modern life. Content: Invite participants to read the text. Observation questions: What do you see going on in the text? What jumps out at you? Context: Written during or shortly after World War I, The Helmsman “can be read as a deliberation on the fatalism of the masses in general and their refusal to take charge of their political fate to influence who should be at the ‘helm.’ The ship as traditional image for the ‘ship of state’ is likely the operative metaphor behind this text.”* Interpretation questions: With this additional context, let’s turn back to the text. What more do you notice? What more jumps out at you? Why do you think the narrator asks the stranger and then the crew, “Am I the helmsman?” What authority does he have? What do you think the narrator expects from the crew when he summons them? What do you think is the meaning of the nod the crew gives the narrator as they look at the tall, dark man? How is power represented in this story? Implication questions: What message about service does the text hold for you? How does the text help you think about the service experiences you’ve had or about the concept of service? * Richard Gray, Ruth Gross, Rolf Goebel and Clayton Koelb, A Franz Kafka Encyclopedia (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2005), 259.

According to Posner, wealth-maximizing consensual transactions are morally desirable because they promote both well-being and autonomy. In this Ar- ticle, Professor West draws on Franz Kakfa's depictions of human motivation to dispute the empirical basis of both justificatory prongs of Posner's thesis. Kafka's characters, she argues, suggest that when individuals consent to transactions,they often do so because of a desire to submit to authority, and not to maximize well-being or autonomy. Thus, Professor West concludes, Posner's identification of consent as the moral justification of wealth max- imization rests on an inadequate view of human motivation.

Information about the artist you can find here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elke_Rehder artist's book cover with original woodcuts Artist's book by Elke Rehder with 6 woodcuts and 6 painted titles. Cover with an additional woodcut. Fellowship (Gemeinschaft) "Fellowship" (Gemeinschaft) is a short story by Franz Kafka. Like many of Kafka's works, this story is about the unavoidable paradox of needing human contact, like sex. The story is about a group of five people. They appear to enjoy being a group, but only of five. When one other hopes to join, he is refused admittance. Yet he perseveres. Through some time the others come to respect his genuine interest in the group, but still reject him. To some extent the rejection of the man validates his desire for solitude. This may be what Kafka meant when he referred to the story as autobiographical in nature. (Wikipedia) Here is the German text of the short story after the first edition: Wir sind fünf Freunde, wir sind einmal hintereinander aus einem Haus gekommen, zuerst kam der eine und stellte sich neben das Tor, dann kam oder vielmehr glitt so leicht, wie ein Quecksilberkügelchen gleitet, der zweite aus dem Tor und stellte sich unweit vom ersten auf, dann der dritte, dann der vierte, dann der fünfte.

  • Spring 2020 a Letter to the Tor House Community from Elliot Ruchowitz
    Spring 2020 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A Letter to the Tor House Community from Elliot Ruchowitz-Roberts, President I hope you and your loved ones are in good health, finding joy in each day as you shelter in place. All is in good order at Tor House. Even though we have essentially closed down, life continues. Looking out from the President’s office on the second floor of the East Wing, I see, from left to right, Hawk Tower, the Pacific, Tor House, and the south side of the East Wing. Yesterday, a red-tailed hawk was perched on the eaves of Tor House, looking out over the now-grown wild western section of the property-- sweet alyssum, wild lilac, rosemary, sour grass and other flowers in bloom. Quail in the yard, on the garden walls, on the roof: “And hark the quail,” Jeffers wrote in “The Last Conservative,” “running on the low roof’s worn cedar shingles./Their little feet patter like raindrops.” What I can no longer see are the four eucalyptus trees—all, given their size, most certainly planted by Jeffers—that have been taken down from the property to the south of Tor House. Despite their loss, Jeffers, I think, would have admired the work of the tree cutter, held aloft by ropes; securing with rope and pulley and then cutting ten-foot sections of the trees with his chain saw. Of course, words from Jeffers’s poetry come to mind: If you should look for this place after a handful of lifetimes: Perhaps of my planted forest a few May stand yet, dark-leaved Australians or the coast cypress, haggard With storm-drift; but fire and the axe are devils….
