Case

The Case Book Description: The Case is often interpreted as a prediction and criticism of the totalitarian regimes that came to the world stage some time after it was written, where civil rights were suspended and even the hint of civil disobedience was met with persecution. It can perhaps be said that it contains a "premonition" about Nazi Germany. In the case of Josef K., who was faced with an accusation made by an inaccessible authority and whose nature was never explained; A religious or metaphysical authority can also be attributed to the court. In The Trial, Kafka builds an absurd legal system paradigm that defines crime not only as an action but also associates it with the "bad intention" of the suspect and focuses on the criminal rather than the crime. In theory, this is a system that makes crime possible without any illegal action. But Kafka is a crime; While writing about responsibility and freedom, he does not put forward a system or doctrine or propose a solution. If there is only one feature of this dark world vision that inevitably draws the reader in, it is not open to discussion; and that is its ambiguity. (From the Promotional Bulletin)
