内容説明
'Heidsieck goes deeper and more fully into the specifically intellectual context of Kafka than anyone before him - showing him to fit into a larger pattern of his time and place' STEVE DOWDEN, Yale University.
Kafka's modernist innovations in fiction were strongly influenced by the non-literary sources he encountered during his formative years as a writer, among them cognitive psychology, philosophy, jurisprudence and theology. This book draws on over 50 sources, many previously unpublished, which have never before been considered, ranging from letters by teachers and friends discussing their intellectual interests to transactions on historical and contemporary Judaism and Christianity. The author combines an historical reconstruction of these discourses with critical readings of Kafka's fiction, departing from both the biographical approach and recent poststructuralist criticism; he argues thatissues of perception, description, referential belief, knowledge and consciousness, as well as an appeal to critical rationality, are central to an understanding of Kafka's style. A landmark in Kafka scholarship, this book provides fresh insights into some of the most profoundly misinterpreted writings of the modern period. Controversial and provocative, it should be a part of every university library's holdings. PROFESSOR HEIDSIECK is professor ofGerman at the University of South Carolina.
