“Pertencimento/não pertencimento” Franz Kafka: um exemplo a ser lembrado¹

ABSTRACT

This paper begins with concepts of “belonging/not-belonging” and presents the case of Franz Kafka to illustrate the decisive psychic, social and historical circumstances that led him to poeticize his private feelings of “belonging/not-belonging” in his writings. Finally, it analyzes the very small narrative “Gemeinschaft” (“Community”), which we have translated into Portuguese.
