Ein Reisender kommt in eine Strafkolonie, um mehr über die dortigen Zustände zu erfahren. Man zeigt ihm eine grausame Bestrafungsmaschine...

One of the great works of the 20th century, Kafka's The Trial has been read as a study of political power, a pessimistic religious parable, or a crime novel where the accused man is himself the problem. In it, a man wakes up one morning to find himself under arrest for an offence which is never explained. Faced with this ambiguous but threatening situation, Josef K. gradually succumbs to its psychological pressure.

Ce matin-là, lorsque Gregor Samsa veut se lever pour aller travailler, quelque chose l'en empêche. C'est en réalité son propre corps qui s'est métamorphosé en insecte pendant la nuit. Désormais, il n'inspire que le dégoût, et n'a plus aucune autonomie. Personne ne croit à sa capacité à ressentir des émotions malgré son aspect monstrueux. La métamorphose s'opère également dans le comportement de ceux qu'il aime et qui ne veulent plus de lui, dans son rapport à l'espace, à lui-même et à l'existence.

The Metamorphosis is a novella written by Franz Kafka that was first published in 1915.

"Als Gregor Samsa eines Morgens aus unruhigen Träumen erwachte, fand er sich in seinem Bett zu einem ungeheueren Ungeziefer verwandelt". Der erste Satz dieser wohl berühmtesten Erzählung Kafkas gräbt sich unauslöschlich ins Gedächtnis. Kafkas Groteske, in der Herr Samsa binnen einer Nacht zum Käfer mutiert, gehört zum Kanon der Weltliteratur.

Imagine waking up one morning and finding that you are a giant insect, a cockroach, still perceiving your surroundings and family as they are, but unable to comminicate. This is what happens to Gregor Samsa. Yesterday he was a traveling salesman, and today he finds himself a repulsive vermin.

Le jour de son arrestation, K. ouvre la porte de sa chambre pour s'informer de son petit-déjeuner et amorce ainsi une dynamique du questionnement qui s'appuie, tout au long du roman, sur cette métaphore de la porte. Accusé d'une faute qu'il ignore par des juges qu'il ne voit jamais et conformément à des lois que personne ne peut lui enseigner, il va pousser un nombre ahurissant de portes pour tenter de démêler la situation.

The Metamorphosis, a novella by Franz Kafka, is often cited as one of the seminal works of short fiction of the 20th century. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed into a gigantic insect.

Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis tells the story of Gregor, the only son of the Samsa family. One morning upon waking up, Gregor, a traveling salesman, discovers that his body has somehow transformed into an insect-like creature; but his mind is somehow still intact. Although not surprised by the change, Gregor's family is disgusted, and his father ends up injuring Gregor while trying to keep him in his bedroom.

Kafka schrieb den Brief zwischen 1919, schickte ihn aber nie ab. Auf mehr als einhundert handschriftlichen Seiten analysiert er das Verhältnis zu seinem schier übermächtigen Vater...

Lorsque Gregor Samsa aperçoit son corps recouvert d'une carapace et constate que des pattes lui ont poussé dans la nuit, il croit à un mauvais rêve et ne s'inquiète pas outre mesure. Pourtant, la métamorphose est bien réelle.

No wonder Elias Canetti described it as "one of the few great and perfect works of the poetic imagination written". The Metamorphosis remains one of the best works of fiction in history. It is the story of a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, who wakes up to find himself being transformed to an insect-like creature. The story unfolds into one of the greatest short fiction stories ever written.

The Metamorphosis (German: Die Verwandlung, also sometimes translated as The Transformation) is a novella by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the western world. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed (metamorphosed) into a large, monstrous insect-like creature.

As travelling salesman Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect. He was lying on his hard - as if it were armor-plated - back, and when he lifted his head a little he could see his domelike brown belly divided into stiff arched segments, on top of which the bed quilt could hardly stay in place and was about to slide off completely. His numerous legs, which were pitifully thin compared to the rest of his bulk, waved helplessly before his eyes.

“One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in bed he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug.” With this startlingly bizarre sentence, Kafka begins his masterpiece, The Metamorphosis. It is the story of a young traveling salesman who, transformed overnight into a giant, beetle-like insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. Rather than being surprised at the transformation, the members of his family despise it as an impending burden upon themselves.

The Trial is one of the great works of the 20th century - an extraordinary vision of one man put on trial by an anonymous authority on an unspecified charge. Kafka evokes all the terrifying reality of his ordeal.

Primo e meno noto romanzo di Kafka, "America" narra le tragicomiche vicende di un ragazzo praghese che, per una disavventura con una cameriera, viene spedito dalla famiglia oltreoceano. In questa terra sconfinata, il candido e disorientato Karl cercherà la sua strada incappando in sventure e tradimenti, benefattori o presunti tali, e situazioni oltremodo bizzarre. Kafka lasciò incompiuta questa sua opera dagli echi dickensiani.
