    analyse i 1.g af Kafkas tekst_ Jonas C. Kraft Foran Loven af Kafka Indledning Kafka er af jødisk herkomst han er født i 1883 og dødede i. 1924. Kafka havde et meget dårligt forhold til sin far. Og det er også dette forhold‚ der i mange tekster har fået Kafka til at fremstille Gud eller andre afgørende personer meget strengt. Det er en holdning‚ som jeg synes afspejles i denne tekst i og med‚ at det aldrig lykkes for personen at få opfyldt sit forehavender. Dertil skal det siges at Kafka var ateist

    In “The Metamorphosis” By Franz Kafka‚ the style enhances the nightmarish quality of the work in many ways. This quote from line 304-306 can be used to illustrate this when Gregor says‚ “I’ll open up immediately‚ just a moment. I’m slightly unwell‚ an attack of dizziness. I haven’t been able to get up.” These lines from the text show that Kafka describes this nightmare in a simple style. Gregor has completely transformed from a human into a vermin yet he treats the situation as if it could happen

    The nightmarish quality of “The Metamorphosis‚” by Franz Kafka‚ is enhanced by the straight forward -almost academic- nature of the writing. One such example of this occurs on page 93‚ reading‚ ““What’s happened to me?” [Gregor] thought. It wasn’t a dream. His room‚ a proper human room‚ although a little too small‚ lay peacefully between its four familiar walls.”(Kafka) From thereon‚ he abandons the description of his transformation to describe the room and previous night. As the audience reads this

    the relations of causation and resemblance; or‚ more accurately‚ that the empirically warranted idea of the self is just the idea of such a bundle. In “Metamorphosis” Kafka takes on Locke’s view of the self. Kafka illustrates that Gregor Samsa is the same person as he was when he was human even though he has changed into a bug. Kafka does this by showing that Gregor still has the same thoughts‚ memories‚ and tries to continue the same routine even though he has become a bug. Gregor stills tries to
