- Abstract:
- Kafka's Romanticism/Platonism is hidden underneath the covers. In this article I show how better translations can help the reader take the covers off the bed. Whether it be K.'s meeting with Buergel in the Castle or with the Josef K.'s meeting with the Priest in The Trial, essentially the message resonates. A preview of ESSENTIAL KAFKA.
