He is Franz Kafka! Franz Kafka! He wrote The Trial. It's a book about byzantine bureaucracy bearing down on lil old Josef K.

Maira Kalman is one of those multi-talented people. She writes children's stories and books for adults. She's also a contributor to the New York Times, creates covers for the New Yorker and sets for operas. Her latest book, Still Life with Remorse, includes family stories, paintings and vignettes about historical figures like Leo Tolstoy and Franz Kafka. She also likes to dress up like like those characters and make funny films about them. We spoke in Kalman's Greenwich village studio and laughed a lot about life's craziest moments.“Now What?” is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.
En “Un artista del hambre”, Kafka nos presenta a un hombre cuya única forma de expresión y existencia es el ayuno. Durante años, este artista del hambre ha sido una atracción popular en las ferias: el público se agolpa para observar su abstinencia radical como si fuera un acto de fe, de arte o de locura. Con el tiempo, su fama decae y es relegado a un circo, donde su celda pasa desapercibida. En su lecho de muerte, confiesa que no ayunaba por virtud ni por rebeldía: simplemente, porque nunca encontró una comida que le gustara.

This year marks the centenary of the publication of Franz Kafka's novel, The Trial - a seminal work that continues to captivate and unsettle its readers. EI's Alastair Benn and Paul Lay are joined by Karolina Watroba, author of Metamorphoses: In Search of Franz Kafka, to discuss Josef K's tragic entanglement with a suffocating bureaucracy.

Der jüdisch-deutsch-tschechische Autor Max Brod ist heute vor Allem als Freund und Förderer von Franz Kafka bekannt, und als Retter von dessen zur Vernichtung bestimmten Werken. 1925 war aber er ein sehr bekannter deutschsprachiger Autor, dessen Romane auch in Berlin und Hamburg gefeiert wurden. Immer wieder stoßen wir auf journalistische Arbeiten von ihm in den Tageszeitungen, weshalb er in den letzten 5 Jahren schon mehrfach in diesem Podcast zu hören war. Am 6. Juli 1925 erschien ein kurzer Text von Brod im Hamburger Anzeiger, der sich der Situation in überfüllten Zügen widmet, die wir alle kennen. Wo sind die Menschen, die anderen ihren Platz anbieten, und wer sind sie? Für uns quetscht sich Rosa Leu in den überfüllten Zugwaggon.
How to Get Out of Quasi Recovery: https://livlabelfree.com/quasirecoverybookThe Discovery Workbook: https://livlabelfree.com/discoveryworkbookBundle & save on all my books: https://livlabelfreebooks.com/ Franz Kafka once wrote “I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound or stab us. If the book we're reading doesn't wake us up with a blow to the head, what are we reading for? We need books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply…like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.” Most eating disorder recovery books are written to make you feel better, to give you hope, to reassure you that “everything will be okay if you just follow these steps.” But real transformation doesn't come from comfort – it comes from books that disturb your comfortable illusions. The truth is, I didn't write How to Get Out of Quasi Recovery to make you feel better. I wrote it to be the axe for the frozen sea of fear within you. That frozen sea is the illusory safety of hiding behind the recovery identity. It's the comfort of endlessly watching other people's “What I Eat in a Day” videos, looking for permission to do the hard work instead of actually doing it. Fear makes you believe that if you just find the right map, the right approach, the right influencer to follow, you won't have to face the terrifying truth: that your path to freedom can only be discovered by you. How to Get Out of Quasi Recovery is designed to wake you up with that “blow to the head” Kafka wrote about…but in service of your freedom. Let me be clear here: this isn't about destroying you. It's about destroying the illusions that have kept you small. And the Discovery Workbook? That's your own axe. It helps you take these uncomfortable truths and use them to chip away at the stories that are no longer serving you.

Franz Kafka (1883 — 1924), nascido no antigo Império Austro-Húngaro, foi um dos maiores escritores da língua alemã e ficou eternizado pelos seus romances e contos.Nesta pequena narrativa, uma das muitas que foram encontradas nos seus cadernos, a prosa se aproxima de um tom poético. Refletindo sobre a noite e seu estado de vigília, podemos perceber as emoções de um sujeito solitário, que permanece acordado enquanto todos dormem.Algumas interpretações sugerem que o conto tem elementos autobiográficos, já que Kafka sofria de insônias, dedicando as madrugadas ao processo de criação literária.Produzido, editado, narrado por Carlos Eduardo ValenteFoto de Kafka encontrada na internet e trabalhada para este conteúdo.Não existia um fonte da foto.Capa para este conteúdo produzido por Carlos Eduardo Valente e trabalhada para este conteúdo pelo mesmo.Músicas que compoem o fundo da biblioteca do YuouTube sem a necessidade de créditos e mixadas por Carlos Eduardo Valente.São elas:Garytharsky - Schwartzy e Monthaholic, do mesmo autorSe vc quiser apoiar esse projeto, acesse:https://apoia.se/carloseduardovalente Pode apoiar também através de um PIXcarlao50@gmail.com Inscreva-se em nosso canal do YouTube:https://youtube.com/@CarlosEduardoValenteSeja membro deste canal e ganhe benefícios: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwJXedn6y5AKKKksevSa_Ug/join

Wie schafft man es, Dinge zu tun? Wir alle prokrastinieren, schieben auf. Gerade wenn unsere Kreativität gefragt ist, erleben viele Blockaden und lenken sich dann lieber ab, statt weiter zu schreiben, zu malen oder Ideen für ihr eigenes Café zu sammeln. Das geht anders! In dieser Folge, öffnen Atze und Leon einen Werkzeugkoffer auf dem steht »getting things done«. Und wenn ihr tiefer einsteigen wollt, wir haben noch 2 andere Folgen mit einem ganz anderen Blick aufs Aufschieben. Die heißen: Aufschieben besiegen UND Mach's später - wann Aufschieben hilft! Wir sagen in der Folge, dass Kafka am 4.6. starb, korrekt wäre der 3.6. Sorry! Es steht auf der Seite, auf der Prinz die Szene beschreibt, falsch in seinem Buch.

Die Erzählung Ein Landarzt von Franz Kafka entstand im Jahr 1917 und wurde 1918 veröffentlicht. Im Jahre 1919 erschien das Buch Ein Landarzt mit der Erzählung gleichen Titels und dreizehn weiteren Prosatexten. Kafka selbst bezeichnete "Ein Landarzt" (die einzelne Erzählung, nicht die Sammlung) als eine der wenigen wirklich gelungenen Erzählungen von ihm. Zweifellos zeichnet sich diese Geschichte auch tatsächlich durch meisterliches dichterisches Können aus. Doch angesichts der zahlreichen anderen hervorragenden Erzählungen offenbart Kafkas Einschätzung von "Ein Landarzt" seinen hohen Anspruch an sich selbst, der im übrigen als Argument für die Ernsthaftigkeit der Anweisung Kafkas an Max Brod angeführt werden kann, wonach Brod nach Kafkas Tod den Großteil des Gesamtwerkes vernichten sollte.

Franz Kafka (1883 - 1924)Translated by UnknownLa metamorfosis (Die Verwandlung, en su título original en alemán) es una novela escrita por Franz Kafka en 1912. La historia trata sobre Gregorio Samsa, cuya repentina transformación en un enorme insecto dificulta cada vez más la comunicación de su entorno social con él, hasta que es considerado intolerable por su familia y finalmente perece.La primera traducción de La Metamorfosis en español apareció publicada en dos partes, en la revista La Revista de Occidente, en el año 1925. La primera de ellas en el número VIII y la segunda parte, en el IX de la misma revista. En la revista no figura el nombre del traductor; simplemente se señala que el autor del texto es Franz Kafka. Es esta la traducción original que se ofrece en este audiolibro.
Citizen Accused: Orson Welle's Film of Franz Kafka's The Trial Few authors can lay claim to creating a genre, however it could be argued that Franz Kafka did just that with stories like The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and this week's cinematic adaptation, The Trial. The term Kafkaesque , instantly builds a sense of excitement, confusion, and paranoia in readers - many whom are only familiar with the term and not necessarily the author. This week we look at Orson Welle's 1962 adaptation of Kafka's 1925 classic, The Trial. Set (15 minutes?) in the future, Welle's beautifully realizes the confusion and terror that has made Kafka's unfinished original work a classic. It's a thrill for Mr. Chavez & I to sit down and dive into a bold and daring exploration of a famed and cherished writer, by one of the great masters of the cinema. Take a listen and ask yourself how much you see of Kafka and Welles' visions in today's troubling world. Thanks for listening. As always, we can be reached at gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many, Many Thanks.

Today is the second part of my Latin American orchestral song tribute. Last week we explored Villa-Lobos and Revueltas; today we devote ourselves to Argentina, and primarily two composers: Alberto Ginastera, and Osvaldo Golijov, in settings by writers as varied as Emily Dickinson, Rosalía de Castro, Manuel Mujica Lainez, David Grossman, Mercedes de Toro, Alejandro Casona, and Franz Kafka; performed by Hina Spani, Phyllis Curtin, Dawn Upshaw, Nadine Sierra, Virginia Tola, Mónica Ferracani, and Miriam Khalil, among others, alongside three artists (Rayanne Dupuis, Christopher Dylan Herbert, and Ilana Davidson) who happen to be friends and colleagues of mine. The episode begins with memorial tributes to iconic writer Edmund White and beloved French singer Nicole Croisille, both of whom died this week. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing. By clicking on the following link (https://linktr.ee/CountermelodyPodcast) you can find the dedicated Countermelody website which contains additional content including artist photos and episode setlists. The link will also take you to Countermelody's Patreon page, where you can pledge your monthly or yearly support at whatever level you can afford.

In der Strafkolonie ist eine Erzählung von Franz Kafka, die im Oktober 1914 entstand und 1919 veröffentlicht wurde. Einem Forschungsreisenden wird das Rechtssystem einer Strafkolonie vorgeführt. Es besteht darin, dass jeder Angeklagte unabhängig von seiner Schuld von einem Apparat in minutiösem Ablauf stundenlang gefoltert und dann getötet wird. Den Apparat beschreibt Kafka als überdimensionalen Parlograph in der Funktionsweise eines Phonographen mit vibrierender Metallplatte und Nadel. Dieser Apparat ist der Hauptgegenstand der Erzählung, er repräsentiert die Einheit von Schrift und Tod. (

In the stories of Franz Kafka we find the fantastical wearing the most ordinary, realist dress. Though haunted by abjection and failure, Kafka has come to embody the power and potential of literary imagination in the 20th century as it confronts the nightmares of modernity. In this episode, Marina Warner is joined by Adam Thirlwell to discuss the ways in which Kafka extended the realist tradition of the European novel by drawing on ‘simple forms' – proverbs, wisdom literature and animal fables – to push the boundaries of what literature could explore, with reference to stories including ‘The Judgment', ‘In the Penal Colony' and ‘A Report to the Academy'.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from this episode.

Franz Kafka's novella The Metamorphosis is a strange tale that poses the question of what it would be like to one day wake up and suddenly find yourself transformed into an insect, however, through the use of satire and absurdism, Kafka has sculpted a story that has far deeper meaning. Join Dave and Greg as they explore themes of isolation, disability, and poor mental health within Kafka's most well known story.

You'll find others about conflict on a ship, dealing with annoying people on the street, etc. All are told in the surreal style he is known for, along with his dry humour.If you got value from the podcast please provide support back in any way you best see fit!Timeline:(00:00:00) Intro(00:02:51) Themes/Questions(00:15:30) Author & Extras(00:21:49) Summary(00:24:34) Value 4 Value(00:26:01) Join Live!

Can Literary Wisdom Counter Despair and Deepen Your Faith? In this episode of Good Faith Presents: Reading to Make Sense of the World, Curtis Chang and author-professor Jessica Hooten Wilson explore the spiritual insights of Flannery O'Connor's prayer journal. They examine how O'Connor's raw honesty, humility, and startling imagery confront the modern obsession with self and offer a radical vision of divine grace. Jessica helps listeners see why O'Connor's work is more than provocative—it's prophetic.

Donald Trump has been ripping up the rule book on global trade, implementing huge tariffs and sending markets into a frenzy. But is there any method in his apparent madness? Legendary Marxist philosopher Slavoj Žižek regales Aaron with his thoughts on US trade policy – not to mention Franz Kafka, fully automated luxury communism and whether […]
Franz Kafka - jeśli ten wielki pisarz, autor „Procesu”, „Zamku” czy „Przemiany” kojarzy się nam z czymś najmniej, to jest to pisanie liryczne i romantyczne. Niewidoczne w jego prozie delikatność i uczuciowość odkrywamy czytając listy Kafki do Mileny, jego wielkiej niespełnionej miłości. Czy te intymne i niezwykle szczere teksty mogą być kluczem do głębszego odczytania literackiego dzieła jednego z największych pisarzy XX wieku?Lektura „Listów do Mileny” prowokuje też wiele innych pytań, np. takie – czy słowo ma potencjał miłosnotwórczy? A jeśli tak, to co to nam mówi o naturze języka, uczucia i literatury?Gościem tego odcinka jest znakomity literaturoznawca profesor Ryszard Koziołek.Gość: Ryszard KoziołekProwadzenie: Agata KasprolewiczKsiążka: „Listy do Mileny” Franz Kafka, wydawnictwo Znak---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiakSubskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.comKoszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

In this (spoiler-free) episode, we give YOU, the listener, all the tools you need to confidently and appropriately use the term Kafkaesque the next time Severance comes up in conversation. During Why This, Why Now?, Hannah guides Marcelle through some very compelling ideas about the show's popularity (did someone say "pandemic?"). We then move into The Theory We Need where the conversation turns to Marxism, surrealism, anti-capitalism and, you guessed it, Franz Kafka! The best news? By the end of the episode, you earn a MUSIC DANCE EXPERIENCE! Not really, (because we're a podcast), but we do end the episode with Hannah's thesis about state power, repression of grief, corporate culture and entertainment — and in a way, isn't that just as "elite" and "coveted AF?"To learn more about Material Girls, head to our Instagram at instagram.com/ohwitchplease! Or check out our website ohwitchplease.ca. We'll be back in two weeks with a Material Concerns episode, but until then, go check out all the other content we have on our Patreon at Patreon.com/ohwitchplease! Patreon is how we produce the show and pay our team! Thanks again to all of you who have already made the leap to join us there! We're currently doing a Patreon push, so please consider joining today to get all our extra perks, along with the backlog of bonuses!***Material Girls is a show that aims to make sense of the zeitgeist through materialist critique* and critical theory! Each episode looks at a unique object of study (something popular now or from back in the day) and over the course of three distinct segments, Hannah and Marcelle apply their academic expertise to the topic at hand.*Materialist Critique is, at its simplest possible level, a form of cultural critique – that is, scholarly engagement with a cultural text of some kind – that is interested in modes of production, moments of reception, and the historical and ideological contexts for both. Materialist critique is really interested in the question of why a particular cultural work or practice emerged at a particular moment. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass are strange books, a testament to their author's defiant unconventionality. Through them, Lewis Carroll transformed popular culture, our everyday idioms and our ideas of childhood and the fantastic, and they remain enormously popular.Anna Della Subin joins Marina Warner to explore the many puzzles of the Alice books. They discuss the way Carroll illuminates other questions raised in this series: of dream states, the nature of consciousness, the transformative power of language and the arbitrariness of authority.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from this episode.

The itinerary of Faithfully Seeking Franz comprises an irregular quest for dead mentor, modernist author Franz Kafka--in places he lived, worked, vacationed and convalesced, and in the body of work he left: fiction, diaries, notebooks, and correspondence. The search for the man inside the writer is both a personal journey and a joint venture of two in the field: E. and M. in pursuit of K. The story might even be said to unfold as a love note to triangulation. Learn more about your ad choices.

Pour René Girard, la rivalité est une conséquence du désir : nous désirons les mêmes choses, et nous nous faisons mutuellement obstacle. Derrière toute rivalité, nous dit-il, il y a le désir secret de nous approprier ce que possède l'autre, ou de l'en déposséder. Analyse de cette conception.Distribué par Audiomeans.

本期摘要 友友们好!这期节目有点特殊,是我上周去芝加哥时和我的导师、好朋友,也是超级影迷Dave的第二次聊天。因为我们两年没见,我就让他跟我分享这两年里他看过的最喜欢的电影,也拉拉杂杂聊了很多别的。Shownotes写得太累了,这里就不多写了,留两段他在节目里引用和说的话在下面与大家分享: “I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound or stab us. If the book we're reading doesn't wake us up with a blow to the head, what are we reading for? So that it will make us happy, as you write? Good Lord, we would be happy precisely if we had no books, and the kind of books that make us happy are the kind we could write ourselves if we had to. But we need books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us. That is my belief.” — Franz Kafka (“我认为,我们应该只读那些会伤害或刺痛我们的书。如果我们正在阅读的书不能像一记重击那样把我们惊醒,那么我们读它又有什么意义?是为了让我们感到快乐,就像你所写的那样吗?天哪,如果我们没有书,我们反而会真正感到快乐。而那些让我们感到快乐的书,恰恰是我们自己若有必要也能写出来的书。但我们需要的是那些对我们而言如同一场灾难般的书,它们让我们深深悲恸,如同失去比我们自己更爱的人,如同被放逐到远离一切的森林,如同自我了断。一本书必须成为砍向我们内心冰封大海的斧头——这就是我的信念。”) "I like movies that show how people attempt to show love, experience joy, make art, or build community in the face of death, grief, and the hardness of being a human living with other humans." — Dave S.(我喜欢那些展现人们在面对死亡、悲伤以及作为人类与他人共同生活的艰难时刻,如何表达爱、体验快乐、创造艺术或建立联系的电影。) 本期提及 第一期和Dave的节目 编号17 Mickey 17 汉江怪物 玉子 冰血暴 Fargo 严肃的男人 A Serious Man 小姐 Fingersmith 色,戒 像这样的小事 Small Things Like These 隐秘的生活 A Hidden Life 秘密会议 Conclave 好家伙 GoodFellas 物质主义者 Materialists 挑战者 Challengers 酷儿 Queer 梦想情景 Dream Scenario 音乐大师 Maestro 饥饿游戏3:嘲笑鸟(上) The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 欢乐时光 驾驶我的车 温蒂和露西 Wendy and Lucy 生活多美好 It's a Wonderful Life 冰风暴 The Ice Storm 丧日少女 Shiva Baby 我以前很有趣 I Used to Be Funny 垫底俱乐部 Bottoms 尸体游戏 Bodies, Bodies, Bodies A Deadly Education 科尔森·怀特黑德 Colson Whitehead 厄休拉·勒古恩 Ursula K.
