durée : 00:58:06 - Le Souffle de la pensée - par : Géraldine Mosna-Savoye - Le philosophe Peter Szendy évoque un petit conte inquiétant et inachevé sur une taupe paranoïaque qui n'a qu'un rêve : celui de bâtir le terrier parfait, à l'abri du monde de ses bruits et de ses dangers, jusqu'à faire de son chez-soi le lieu de toutes les menaces : "Le Terrier" de Franz Kafka. - réalisation : Nicolas Berger - invités : Peter Szendy Professeur en littérature comparée et en humanité à l'Université de Brown aux Etats-Unis, conseiller auprès de la Philharmonie de Paris

The Violence of Reading: Literature and Philosophy at the Threshold of Pain (Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) expounds the scene of reading as one that produces an overwhelmed body exposed to uncontainable forms of violence. The book argues that the act of reading induces a representational instability that causes the referential function of language to collapse. This breakdown releases a type of "linguistic pain" (Scarry; Butler; Hamacher) that indicates a constitutive wounding of the reading body. The wound of language marks a rupture between linguistic reality and the phenomenal world. Exploring this rupture in various ways, the book brings together texts and genres from diverse traditions and offers close examinations of the rhetoric of masochism (Sacher-Masoch; Deleuze), the relation between reading and abuse (Nietzsche; Proust; Jelinek), the sublime experience of reading (Kant; Kafka; de Man), the "novel of the institution" (Musil; Campe), and literary suicide (Bachmann; Berryman; Okkervil River).

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.

13-6-25: La voz de Félix Jiménez: "Dasein, noche, niebla, invierno" (música Ramón Silles). Dice la contracubierta del libro: Adentrarse en un libro de poemas es un acto de fe. Las mismas palabras que utilizaba Kafka para la contemplación (antesala de la creación) son válidas para el lector y el escritor. “No es necesario que salgas de casa. Quédate en tu mesa y escucha. Ni siquiera escuches, simplemente espera. Ni siquiera esperes, permanece en silencio y solo. El mundo vendrá a ofrecerse a ti para que lo desenmascares, no puede evitarlo… extasiado, se retorcerá ante tus ojos”. En el programa hemos concebido "Dasein, noche, niebla, invierno" como una obra de contemplación, poesía, presente. La reflexión o la espera, la introspección o la naturaleza. Un excelente libro de poesía de Félix Jiménez. Y una excelente pieza musical de Ramón Silles.

This episode stars Seth Rogoff (The Castle: A Novel, Smashing the Tablets: Radical Retellings of the Hebrew Bible, The Kirschbaum Lectures). It was recorded over the Zoom between the This Podcast Will Change Your Life home studio in Chicago, IL and Kafka's (and Rogoff's now) home city of Prague in April 2025.

Descripción de una lucha es una obra temprana de Franz Kafka que destila la esencia de su genio: un viaje crudo, caótico y profundamente existencial. Sin destripar la trama, aquí va un vistazo al alma de este relato, perfecto para los que buscan entender el universo kafkiano. Imagina una noche fría en Praga, donde un encuentro casual se convierte en un espejo de la psique humana. Kafka nos arrastra a través de diálogos que cortan como cuchillos, paisajes que mutan como pesadillas y una voz narrativa que se tambalea entre la realidad y el abismo. Esta no es una historia lineal; es un mosaico de fragmentos oníricos que gritan alienación, incomunicación y la lucha desesperada por definirse en un mundo que se deshace. Cada palabra rezuma la fuerza y el estilo es puro Kafka: prosa densa, cargada de simbolismo, donde lo cotidiano se retuerce en lo surrealista. Los personajes no se conectan, los entornos parecen vivos, y la identidad del narrador se fractura en cada línea. Es un texto que no se lee, se siente, como un eco de nuestras propias inseguridades. Descripción de una lucha es el germen de lo que hará eterno a Kafka: un retrato brutal de la condición humana. "Descripción de una lucha" ( Beschreibung eines Kampfes ), escrita por Franz Kafka entre 1904 y 1910, es uno de sus primeros trabajos y una obra fragmentaria que refleja su estilo introspectivo y surrealista. El relato, que no fue publicado en vida del autor, se caracteriza por su estructura caótica, simbolismo y exploración de la alienación, la identidad y la percepción de la realidad. La historia no sigue una narrativa lineal convencional, sino que se desarrolla en una serie de escenas fragmentadas y oníricas, divididas en varias secciones. A grandes rasgos, se centra en un narrador anónimo que describe sus interacciones con un conocido en una noche fría tras una reunión social. La trama se desenvuelve en un ambiente cargado de tensión psicológica y simbolismo, alternando entre diálogos, reflexiones internas y descripciones de paisajes irreales. El narrador, tras salir de una reunión, camina con un conocido por las calles de Praga. La conversación inicial es trivial, pero pronto se vuelve tensa y extraña. El narrador se siente inseguro y atrapado en sus propios pensamientos, mientras describe el entorno nocturno con un tono casi alucinatorio. La relación entre los personajes se vuelve ambigua, marcada por una mezcla de camaradería y rivalidad. La narrativa se fragmenta aún más en la segunda parte de la obra. El conocido del narrador comienza a relatar una historia propia, presentando personajes como un "orador" y un "hombre gordo" que viajan en un paisaje surrealista, como un río que parece un sueño. Estas figuras simbolizan las luchas internas del narrador, su percepción distorsionada de la realidad y su incapacidad para conectarse con los demás. El relato explora la lucha interna del protagonista con su identidad, la incomunicación y la percepción fragmentada del mundo. Los diálogos son tensos y a menudo carecen de lógica, reflejando la ansiedad y el aislamiento. Los paisajes descritos, como colinas que cambian de forma o un río que parece vivo, refuerzan la atmósfera onírica y desconcertante. Se puede adelantar en este relato lo que Kafka logrará posteriormente en obras mucho más conocidas como La Metamorfosis en las que el simbolismo se introduce en la realidad cotidiana de forma que lo aberrante que normalmente "no se ve" en nuestra realidad, pues se trata de relaciones dañinas, enfermizas, interesadas o realmente malignas se expresa en sus obras como distorsiones, alteraciones de la percepción y conductas o lugares anormales. 💭 ¿Qué te parece este viaje al corazón de Kafka?

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.

Citing to Kafka, Chief Judge Boasberg ruled that the 250+ noncitizens sent secretly to El Salvador without Due Process or notice have proven that the Trump Administration actually “controls” the El Salvador prison and must facilitate the return of these men back to the US to enforce their 5th Amendment rights. Michael Popok puts this ruling and Judge Xinis's Ruling about Abrego Garcia in the proper context. Go to https://shopremi.com/LEGALAF and use code LEGALAF at checkout for 50% off.

The Texas based filmmaker Bryan Poyser returns for his 3rd visit to the podcast. It's been 11 years since he visited. His new film, a comedy, is called "Leads" and will be having its world premiere this week at the Tribeca Film Festival. Written and directed by two-time Independent Spirit Award nominee Bryan Poyser, Leads is a sharp, spirited comedy about second acts and sibling chaos. Mags (Heather Kafka) is a drama lecturer with a steady job, a kid to raise, and her dreams of artistic greatness on the back burner — until her charmingly unpredictable younger brother Merritt (Justin Arnold) shows up out of nowhere… and signs up for her acting class. What starts as an awkward reunion quickly spirals into a hilariously messy journey as old wounds, big ambitions, and way-too-honest monologues bubble to the surface. With Mags trying to maintain control and Merritt stirring the pot, the class turns into a chaotic proving ground for everyone's creative (and personal) baggage. Poyser turns the classroom into a comedic pressure cooker, where drama — both scripted and unscripted — explodes in surprising, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud ways. With standout performances from Kafka and Arnold, plus a winning ensemble that includes Macon Blair and Sara Paxton, Leads is a love letter to late bloomers, awkward family reunions, and the beautiful mess of trying to make art — and sense — of your life. —Cara Cusumano (Tribeca Film Festival) https://youtu.be/aUj9N5OfwEs

How do you retrofit a clustered data-processing system to use cheap commodity storage? That's the big question in this episode as we look at one of the many attempts to build a version of Kafka that uses object storage services like S3 as its main disk, sacrificing a little latency for cheap, infinitely-scalable disks.There are several companies trying to walk down that road, and it's clearly big business - one of them recently got bought out for a rumoured $250m. But one of them is actively trying to get those changes back into the community, as are pushing to make Apache Kafka speak object storage natively.Joining me to explain why and how are Josep Prat and Filip Yonov of Aiven. We break down what it takes to make Kafka's storage layer optional on a per-topic basis, how they're making sure it's not a breaking change, and how they plan to get such a foundational feature merged.–Announcement Post: https://aiven.io/blog/guide-diskless-apache-kafka-kip-1150Aiven's (Temporary) Fork, Project Inkless: https://github.com/aiven/inkless/blob/main/docs/inkless/README.mdKafka Improvement Process (KIP) Articles: KIP-1150: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1150%3A+Diskless+Topics KIP-1163: Diskless Core: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1163%3A+Diskless+Core KIP-1164: Topic Based Batch Coordinator: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1164%3A+Topic+Based+Batch+Coordinator KIP-1165: Object Compaction for Diskless: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1165%3A+Object+Compaction+for+DisklessSupport Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoicesSupport Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/joinFilip on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/filipyonovJosep on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jlprat/Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.socialKris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkinsKris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/

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.

Cristina, giovane laureanda in Lingue, lavora a una tesi sulle opere di Kafka e le sue traduzioni italiane, ma la ricerca prende una piega inaspettata quando scopre un'edizione apocrifa de La metamorfosi, firmata da un misterioso traduttore. Seguendo le tracce dell'enigmatico curatore, Cristina scopre che è un falsario, autore di una lunga serie di inganni editoriali. La rivelazione manda in frantumi la sua tesi e la sua autostima. Inizia così per Cristina un viaggio che non solo mette in discussione le sue convinzioni, ma la costringe a riflettere sulla verità e sull'autenticità delle storie che raccontiamo, su chi decide cosa sia reale e su come la finzione possa talvolta prendere il posto della realtà. Quando tutto sembra ormai perduto, una sorpresa arriva all'alba del nuovo millennio.Andrea AlbaSiciliano di nascita e torinese d'adozione, ha trentanove anni e insegna materie letterarie negli istituti superiori all'ombra della Mole. Laureato in Filologia Moderna all'Università degli studi di Catania e in Scienze Storiche presso l'Università degli studi di Torino, prova a tenere insieme la passione per le narrazioni con quella per la ricerca storica indipendente.

Who benefits and who loses when emotions are described in particular ways? How do metaphors such as "hold on" and "let go" affect people's emotional experiences? Banned Emotions: How Metaphors Can Shape What People Feel (Oxford UP, 2019), written by neuroscientist-turned-literary scholar Laura Otis, draws on the latest research in neuroscience and psychology to challenge popular attempts to suppress certain emotions. This interdisciplinary book breaks taboos by exploring emotions in which people are said to "indulge" self-pity, prolonged crying, chronic anger, grudge-bearing, bitterness, and spite. By focusing on metaphors for these emotions in classic novels, self-help books, and popular films, Banned Emotions exposes their cultural and religious roots. Examining works by Dante, Dickens, Dostoevsky, Kafka, Forster, and Woolf in parallel with Bridesmaids, Fatal Attraction, and Who Moved My Cheese?, Banned Emotions traces pervasive patterns in the ways emotions are represented that can make people so ashamed of their feelings, they may stifle emotions they need to work through. The book argues that emotion regulation is a political as well as a biological issue, affecting not only which emotions can be expressed, but who can express them, when, and how.

Welcome to Season 10 of All the Feelings, where your hosts Pete Wright and Tommy Metz III take you on a guided tour of that weird liminal space between “I should know better by now” and “Why does filling out a W-2 feel like a personality test written by Kafka?”In this premiere episode, the subject is Money, starting with the slow-burning crisis of homeownership. Tommy—staunch apartment loyalist and occasional demon extractor—wonders if owning property is still the pinnacle of adult success, or just another gatekeeping tradition propped up by 1940s mortgage policy and peer pressure from ghosts. Pete, long-time homeowner and accidental handyman, walks us through the real cost of grass, siding, and painting things that no landlord will pay for.Then, it's Tax Time: the annual gauntlet where America's adults cosplay as accountants and hope they don't accidentally confess to fraud. If you've ever had to Google “What is MAGI?” and gotten answers involving sorcery or the Nativity, this episode is for you. Pete recounts his annual ritual of fiscal shame and digital form-filling dread, and Tommy offers a scathing comparison between the IRS and the HOV lane—both of which function primarily through fear.Along the way, we explore the emotional toll of systems that are designed to be opaque, the quiet panic of feeling unqualified to do basic grown-up things, and why the true cost of adulthood might just be your confidence. Spoiler: No one really knows what they're doing. Even Einstein.

Agentic AI represents the next phase beyond generative AI, promising systems that not only generate content but also take autonomous actions within business processes. In a conversation recorded at Google Cloud Next, Kevin Laughridge of Deloitte explains that businesses are moving from AI pilots to production-scale deployments. Agentic AI enables decision-making, reasoning, and action across complex enterprise environments, reducing the need for constant human input. A key enabler is Google's newly announced open Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol, which allows AI agents from different vendors to communicate and collaborate securely across platforms. Over 50 companies, including PayPal, Salesforce, and Atlassian, are already adopting it. However, deploying agentic AI at scale requires more than individual tools—it demands an AI platform with runtime frameworks, UIs, and connectors. These platforms allow enterprises to integrate agents across clouds and systems, paving the way for AI that is collaborative, adaptive, and embedded in core operations. As AI becomes foundational, developers are transitioning from coding to architecting dynamic, learning systems.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest insights about Agent2Agent Protocol: Google's Agent2Agent Protocol Helps AI Agents Talk to Each OtherA2A, MCP, Kafka and Flink: The New Stack for AI AgentsJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

De greves históricas a escritórios claustrofóbicos, de herdeiros perdidos a entregadores de aplicativo: o trabalho é um dos temas mais universais (e explosivos) da literatura. Neste episódio especial do 30:MIN, Arthur Marchetto e Cecilia Garcia Marcon mergulham em livros que retratam o suor, a revolta e o estranhamento daqueles que precisam ganhar a vida — ou dos tontos que acabam por herdá-la.Passando por clássicos, como Kafka ou Zola, e por contemporâneos, como Oyamada e Falero, a dupla analisa como a literatura representa o trabalho em diversas frentes: o absurdo, a opressão, mas também a resistência e os conflitos pessoais. Então aperta o play e conta pra gente: qual livro fez você ver seu trabalho com outros olhos?---Links⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apoie o 30:MIN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Siga a gente nas redes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Já apoia?

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Alan Minskoff talk about Laila Lalami's dystopian novel, set in an uncomfortably near future. It's narrated by an exceptional Frankie Corzo, who voices an innocent woman incarcerated for her dreams. Much of the narrative is the protagonist Sara's thoughts, feelings, and reactions. The novel is reminiscent of Kafka and Orwell, had they lived in the Internet Age. Sara and her cohorts' mysterious plight seem frighteningly possible.

Peter Capaldi – aka Malcolm Tucker, Dr Who, the universal screen delight and an Oscar-winning film director – was the singer in the punk band the Dreamboys in the late ‘70s who put out a single when he was at the art school in Glasgow. And then became an actor. And then - in the grand tradition of actors who've made albums, Hugh Laurie, Scarlett Johansson, Jeff Bridges and Keanu Reeves among them – released St Christopher in 2021. He's just recorded a second, Sweet Illusions, and talks to us in this extremely funny and entertaining pod about … … how his sole motivation was “a burning desire to be on the telly”. … the difference between fronting bands and being in plays. … how he grievously stitched up support band the Cocteau Twins at a gig in Grangemouth. … a teenage love of Slade - “a bit terrifying but still a bit safe”. … first-hand evidence of the connection between Blakey from On the Buses, Adolph Hitler and Beatles. … “you have to write a hundred songs before you can write a good one”. … arriving at art school in '76 a Neil Young fan and his overnight transformation – “peroxide hair, PVC trousers and bright red crepe sole shoes”. … seeing Simple Minds at the Mars Bar in Glasgow, Jim Kerr with his Shakespearian haircut, “strange, powerful, imaginative, post-glam”. … forming the Dreamboys and “trying to be big, clever and Kafka-esque”. … the stigma of being virtually the only band in Glasgow not to get a John Peel session. … writing the “bizarro pulp” lyrics for the Dreamboys – “we couldn't decide if we were the Cramps or Talking Heads”. … what's required, “apart from a terrible Scouse accent”, in playing John Lennon onstage and George Harrison onscreen. … auditioning (comedian, actor, TV host) Craig Ferguson as the band's drummer.   … how Bill Forsyth launched his acting career: “one minute you're supporting Altered Images, the next in a movie with Burt Lancaster”. … forming a duo with Keanu Reeves when filming Dangerous Liaisons in Paris – powdered wigs in the daytime, guitar/bass punk-thrash at night. .. the romantic Edward Hopper charm of Glasgow in the ‘70s - proto-goths, street lights, rain. … how Dr Robert of the Blow Monkeys and four months filming The Suicide Squad in Atlanta spurred him into writing songs.   … the greatest record of all time. Order the Sweet Illusions album here:https://shop.lastnightfromglasgow.com/products/peter-capaldi-sweet-illusions-vinyl-lp-cd-lossless-dlHelp us to keep the conversation going by joining our global Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Quivercast, we sit down with legendary big wave surfer and water safety expert Jeff Kafka. Jeff shares his journey growing up in Pacifica, CA, where surfing was a family affair from the start. After a gnarly head injury and a less-than-cool blue helmet imposed by his dad, Jeff drifted away from surfing and embraced bodyboarding instead. Determined to make it as a pro, he left home as a teenager to chase heavy waves and remote slabs around the globe. But fate had other plans—a serious injury in Hawaii forced him to hit pause and return to his roots.Back home in Northern California, Jeff found a new passion in the cold, raw power of Mavericks. What started as curiosity turned into a calling, as he committed himself to the world of big wave surfing. Today, Jeff is not only known for charging monster swells but also for keeping others safe in the most dangerous conditions imaginable. From coordinating rescue efforts at Mavericks to providing water safety around the world, Jeff has become a pillar of the big wave community. Tune in to hear his inspiring story of commitment to surfing.Support the showBUY THE ENDLESS SUMMER BOX SET HERE!If you like the QuiverCast here are some ways to help us keep going!

SEASON 3 EPISODE 118: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: ICE Director Tom Homan and his boss Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem must be arrested for contempt of court. It SHOULD be President Ted Bundy Trump being arrested for contempt of court – potentially for ignoring the orders of the SUPREME COURT - but we already know how the laws of this land have been corrupted to protect the greatest criminal in our history. That it cannot be will simply hasten the latest iteration of the constitutional crisis created by a lawless chief executive who still has the military behind him. We are headed for a flashpoint, perhaps as soon as today. To summarize: Trump believes he is God. But in the interim it is time for U-S District Judge Paula Xinis to send this rogue government a message. In fact it is well past time. “Time” was two days ago, at 5 PM. Noem and Homan are now in contempt of HER order in the case of the Noem-Homan-ICE abduction, the DISAPPEARING of a Maryland man already under the PROTECTION of the government of the United States, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. They are in contempt of the orders not of some judge – as the fascist Stephen Miller and his brownshirts call any representative of law and order – they are in contempt of the LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. It is not some judge. They are in contempt of the NATION and they are on the VERGE of being in contempt of the Supreme Court. The point, of course, may be the admission that they abducted someone by "mistake." They sent a Massachusetts-born immigration lawyer a notice to leave the country by "mistake." They warned ICE will keep illegal "ideas" from entering the country, by "mistake."
