Post-imperial Literature

Translatio Imperii in Kafka and Coetzee

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the impact of post-imperial transitions, the book analyzes how the dissolution of East-Central European and West European empires influenced literary alliances. It contrasts Franz Kafka's portrayal of shifting power dynamics with J. M. Coetzee's response to colonial legacies. Through close readings, the author reveals how these writers navigate the absence of transcendental guarantees in human experience, resulting in complex, unstable fictional worlds that reflect the reconfiguration of governance in their respective contexts.
