Abstract

VIQUEZ JIMENEZ, Alí. Camus and kafka: when there isn´t a castle. Káñina [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.1, pp.189-198. ISSN 2215-2636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v41i1.29059.

In view of the interest expressed by Albert Camus to the Kafkaesque work, this essay is to compare the novel The Castle (Kafka) and The Stranger (Camus). It attempts to read the one from the other, so that some arising possibilities and some aesthetic and philosophical limitations, when compared, are contrasted. It concludes with the construction of an open reading frame that clarifies the possible precise relationship between the two texts.

Keywords : comparative literature; French literature; Czech literature; contemporary French novel; contemporary Czech novel.
