Franz Kafka’s Metamorphosis – The Expression of the Relationship between Anthropology – Health
The paper expands upon Kafka’s “Metamorphosis” as the extreme representation of alienation neurosis caused by the arbitrary and absurd character of the individual’s life. From a methodological point of view, we will turn to good account Hawking’s concept of “time’s thermodynamic arrow” which reveals a society where the sense of disorder or entropy increases. In order to properly approach the individual disorder and the mental and spiritual dislocation of Kafka’s character, Jung’s psycho-analytical theory, Kelly’s personal construct theory, Bachelard’s aesthetics and Chira’s interdisciplinary studies will be also taken into account and closely observed in our analysis of the dramatic effects of the extreme form of alienation described in “Metamorphosis”.
Keywords: metamorphosis, alienation, time’s thermodynamic arrow, interdisciplinary, Franz Kafka.
