Specifically, in Kafka\u2019s work. <\/p>\n<p>Philosophy: death of a subject is, ultimately, Blanchot\u2019s ethics. It is instigated by the interruption of the \u2018Il y a\u2019. Here, all former values (everydayness) is replaced by those of the other (otherness). This motion is mimicked in literature, particularly in Kafka\u2019s work. My project will assess why.<\/p>\n<p>Anti-thesis: Is Kafka\u2019s work symbolic (stubbornly independent) or allegorical (autobiographical)?
