Does that mean it's not disrespectful?
- shadowgovt 4y agoThis is a long-standing question. They teach stories in high school these days that came from manuscripts Franz Kafka explicitly demanded be burned upon his death. It is, perhaps, disrespectful. Perhaps we all disrespect him with every new generation of students. Perhaps that's a strangely fitting fate for the man who is the namesake of the term "Kafkaesque." I'd like to hope he'd laugh, but I know only the writings and not the man.
- googlryas 4y agoIronically enough, _why's last act "CLOSURE", he talks about how he read everything by Kafka, even the deleted stuff. So I have to hope he wouldn't have a problem with someone creating this archive to keep his deleted writings alive.
- drewcoo 4y agoKafka is dead. It's difficult to show he is harmed by anything we do today without resorting to the supernatural. _why is invisible, not known to be dead. It is possible to harm unseen people.
