Kafka pro e contro: profili critici dell’appartenere

This reflection compares the predominantly political interpretations offered by Hannah Arendt and Günther Anders of some of Franz Kafka’s writings. It is a comparison that points to a rather different declination of the topic of exclusion / extraneity by the two philosophers towards Kafka’s work. This analysis on the pro and contra of Kafka that Arendt and Anders elaborate at different times allows us to understand the limits of concepts and lexicons typical of contemporary democracies such as inclusion and tolerance by critiquing them radically.
