Franz Kafka's philosophy has been widely interpreted and applied in modern times, though some argue it has been distorted from its original meaning. Kafka explored themes of alienation, anxiety, and the individual's struggle against bizarre and incomprehensible powers. While Kafka is seen as the father of surrealism, his works were not intended as fiction but rather to bear witness to truth. His comparative differential method examined differences and distances in experiences to understand other perspectives with respect for their complex meanings.

The document discusses how personal narratives have lost their ability to engage audiences due to becoming ubiquitous and changing formats. It proposes adapting techniques from traditional narratives, like flow and structure, and combining them with the relationships and media of modern narratives to develop new tools for creating immersive personal stories. The goal is to make personal narratives more expressive and easier to follow.
Abstract final paper 720
This research paper examines Jose María Arguedas's novel Deep Rivers (1958) through the lenses of decoloniality, bildungsroman, and chronotope. It argues that Deep Rivers can be understood as a decolonial bildungsroman defined by its 1950s Peruvian chronotope. First, it defines decoloniality as a non-Eurocentric perspective rejecting capitalism and socialism, originating in the Third World. For the novel's protagonist Ernesto, decoloniality through the indigenous ayllu is the only option. Second, it shows how Ernesto's coming-of-age story links decoloniality and bildungsroman through his experiences in 1950s mountainous

Bruner life as narrative
This document summarizes Jerome Bruner's view that people construct narratives to make sense of their lives and experiences. Bruner argues that we have no way to describe lived experiences other than through narrative form. He also argues that life and narrative influence each other, with narratives imitating life and life imitating narratives. According to Bruner, autobiographies are interpretive constructions rather than objective accounts, and are shaped by cultural narratives and storytelling conventions.
French sociologies of the quotidian
1. The document discusses several French sociological approaches to studying everyday life, including those of Henri Lefebvre, Michel Maffesoli, and Michel de Certeau.
2. Lefebvre developed a Marxist critique of everyday life and sought to analyze aspects of human reality ignored by other disciplines to facilitate social change.
3. De Certeau and Maffesoli both analyzed the tactics and passive resistance employed by ordinary people in their everyday lives as ways to subvert power structures and social control.

Death authorbarthes
The document discusses "The Death of the Author" theory proposed by Roland Barthes. It argues that an author's individual identity or intentions should not be considered in interpreting a text. A text is composed of multiple voices and citations from culture, with meaning emerging from the reader rather than being imposed by an author. By removing the focus on the author, literary analysis is freed from attempting to find a single or fixed meaning, instead allowing for new interpretations over time. The death of the author thus decentralizes meaning and is a revolutionary act against authority.
The Death of the Author
The document discusses the death of the author and the rise of the modern scriptor. It argues that writing destroys the author's voice and point of origin, as the author enters their own death through the act of writing. The modern scriptor is born simultaneously with the text, rather than existing before it. The text is a multi-dimensional space of blended quotations from culture, rather than releasing a single theological meaning from the author-god. The scriptor can only imitate and mix writings, never producing something truly original.

Barthes on Myth which is in a constant form of change.
The document discusses the concept of myth and how it relates to ideology and meaning. Some key points:
- Myth is a form of speech that transforms over time as it is passed down histories. It is part of general science and semiology.
- Semiology studies the relationship between signifiers and signifieds. Mythology is a part of semiology that studies ideas in their formal elements and as part of historical ideology.
- Myths give meaning a form and can naturalize historical concepts, portraying contingency as eternal. Bourgeois ideology widely propagates myths through culture and media to present the social order as natural and inevitable.

It discusses how [1] the fantastic genre became more widely utilized by Latin American writers in the mid-1930s, reaching a "Golden Age" from 1940-1965, and [2] how The Book of Fantasy by Borges, Ocampo and Bioy Casares in 1940 was influential in establishing the fantastic as a legitimate literary form in Latin America. It promoted [3] an "international," "open," and "hedonistic" approach that emphasized plot and internal logic over character psychology.

Air Guitar
Dave Hickey
(from Air Guitar: Essays on Art and Democracy, Art issues. Press, 1997)
Colleagues of mine will tell you that people despise critics because they fear our power. But I
know better. People despise critics because people despise weakness, and criticism is the weakest
thing you can do in writing. It is the written equivalent of air guitar—flurries of silent,
sympathetic gestures with nothing at their heart but the memory of the music. It produces no
knowledge, states no facts, and never stands alone. It neither saves the things we love (as we
would wish them saved) nor ruins the things we hate. Edinburgh Review could not destroy John
Keats, nor Diderot Boucher, nor Ruskin Whistler; and I like that about it. It’s a loser’s game, and
everybody knows it. Even ordinary citizens, when they discover you’re a critic, respond as they
would to a mortuary cosmetician—vaguely repelled by what you do yet infinitely curious as to
how you came to be doing it. So, when asked, I always confess that I am an art critic today
because, as a very young person, I set out to become a writer—and did so with a profoundly
defective idea of what writing does and what it entails.
Specifically, I embarked upon a career in writing blithely undismayed by the fact that, as a writer,
I was primarily interested in that which writing obliterates: in the living atmosphere of all that is
shown, seen, touched, felt, smelled, heard, spoken, or sung. I knew this was a peculiar obsession,
of course, but I thought writers were supposed to be peculiar. I thought it was just a “problem,”
that it could be solved, and that, once solved, the enigmatic whoosh of ordinary experience would
become my “great subject”—that I could then proceed to celebrate the ravishing complexity and
sheer intellectual pleasure of simply being alive in the present moment forever after. I thought.
So I began by writing poems, quickly shifted to fiction, abandoned that for pharmaceutically
assisted pastiche, and abandoned that for gonzo reportage—always trying to get out of the book,
trying to get closer to the moment, and always floating farther from it, slamming myself up
against the fact that writing, even the best writing, invariably suppresses and displaces the greater
and more intimate part of any experience that it seeks to express. Ultimately, I would be forced to
admit that all the volumes of Proust were nothing, quantitatively, compared to the twenty-minute
experience of eating breakfast on a spring morning at a Denny’s in Mobile—and that the more
authoritatively and extensively I sought to encode such an experience, the more profoundly it was
obliterated from the immediacy of memory and transported into the imaginary realm of
remembrance, invested with identity, shorn of utility, and polished up as an object of delectation.
I would begin, every time, trying to approximate some fragment of that enigmatic whoosh and
end up, every time, inevitably, writing an edited, imaginary ve.
A new semiotics age
- Historically, contemporary art and media that will shape the future must accurately describe the times using empirical and realistic parameters through an innovative visual language. This new iconography should universally allow the observer to recognize reflections of past, present, and future mankind and their everyday lives.
- Communication strategies developed over 50 years ago and later with new technology are becoming obsolete and ineffective. The same goes for most contemporary art made for decoration, shock, or aesthetic pleasure - it will be forgotten and lose economic and artistic value.
- Only art that mirrors the true values and meanings of its time will stand the test of time.
Dystopian world
This document discusses dystopian fiction and its development over time. Some key points:
1. Dystopian fiction emerged in the early 20th century in response to totalitarian regimes and world wars. Authors like Orwell and Burgess used dystopias to critique present tendencies and warn of potential dark futures if unchecked.
2. Dystopias depict gloomy, oppressive futures where individuals have little freedom or choice. Societies are often controlled through psychological manipulation and lack of individualism.
3. The genre absorbed modernist techniques and responded to rapid social and technological changes of the time. It questioned political structures and assumptions from the post-Enlightenment era.

This document discusses the value and nature of narrativity in representing reality. It makes three key points:
1) Narrativity is a near-universal feature of human culture and is "a solution to a problem of general human concern, namely, the problem of how to translate knowing into telling." Narratives make human experiences comprehensible across cultures.
2) Historiography provides a useful context for examining narrativity because it struggles with representing real events, which do not naturally present themselves as stories. Various forms of historical writing, like annals and chronicles, represent events with differing degrees of narrativity.
3) By analyzing alternative forms of historical representation, the essay aims to shed light on both

Anglik 14.03
This document discusses two medieval "peasant visions" from the late 12th-early 13th centuries that provide insight into oral and written culture of the time period. It analyzes the Visions of Thurkill and Godeschalk, which were accounts of visions experienced by simple peasants that were later written down by clergy. While some visions may have been fictional, these two are treated as genuine reflections of contemporary folk beliefs that shed light on views of the afterlife and religious ideology. The document examines how the visions reveal the interplay between oral tradition and written texts shaped by ecclesiastical influences.
Iv heart of darkness
Marlow recalls how as a boy he would dream of exploring the blank spaces on maps, but by adulthood those spaces had been filled in with knowledge, ceasing to be places of mystery and instead becoming places of darkness. The passage reflects on how childhood wonder and imagination give way to adult disillusionment with imperialism and colonialism.
Foucault’s Symbolic Narrative Hypothesis
This document discusses Michel Foucault's work and proposes a "symbolic narrative hypothesis" to help explain some aspects of his writings. It argues that Foucault structured his analysis of modernity around eternal forms or "aeonian forms" that emanate from an infinite substance. While Foucault did not explicitly discuss this esoteric perspective, the document suggests it was an "unspoken" influence based on similarities with classical esoteric philosophy, Islamic philosophy, and Foucault's engagement with the works of Henri Corbin. Foucault may have used these symbolic forms and signatures to communicate insights about order and resemblance in a way that leaves symbolic narratives "unspoken."

Antonin is a founder of the VII photo agency.
No alt text provided for this image
Antonin is a founder of the VII photo agency which is an international photo agency which is owned and controlled by only the members. It was launched at the Visa pour l'image Festival France in the town of Perpignan in September 2001. This was one of his own great achievements but eventually, he was suspended from the VII Photo Agency after sexual harassment allegations were made upon him despite he continued to deny those.
More on his personal life, he was born in 1947 in a town called Litomerice in Czechoslovakia and eventually pursued his studies in photography in Netherlands where he got his BFA in Photography at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam.
Antonin Kratochvil specializes mostly in documenting the world's hot topic or showing how a refugee life is by depicting those realities in his pictures. He would provide his own personal experience towards those events together with those affected in it in order to provide a true aspect of the reality we are all living in but decide to ignore it sometimes.
" He took pictures in the Mongolia's street children for the magazine published by the Museum of Natural History to a portrait session with David Bowie for Detour, from covering the war in Iraq for Fortune Magazine to shooting Deborah Harry for a national advertising campaign for the American Civil Liberties Union, Kratochvil's ability to see through and into his subjects and show immutable truth has made his pictures not facsimiles but uncensored visions." - From Antonin's website.
During his years of being a professional photographer, he had a widespread of publications examining various topics and interests as from the description above taken from Antonin's website. This sum up a lot of his jobs and only shows that he is versatile to a lot of topics of interests and also he is keen to try new ways to target his audience. We can see from one side that he is willing to raise awareness upon topics that we often ignore or forget in our busy society. However, he also merges into the world of celebrities and fame by depicting portraits of those icons of the industry while at the same time giving his art more value in terms of audience. This can be seen as a strategy for himself in order to raise awareness for his other art as people will still keep up with his work either through celebrities or through his pictures about real world issues.
Some of his pictures can be shown as below:

A time loop is a plot device where periods of time are repeatedly experienced by characters, with the hope of breaking the cycle. Time loops constantly reset when a condition is met, such as a character's death or a clock reaching a certain time, with one or more characters retaining memories from previous loops. Stories with time loops center on characters learning from each successive loop through time to eventually solve the problem and exit the loop.More Related Content

Marlow recalls how as a boy he would dream of exploring the blank spaces on maps, but by adulthood those spaces had been filled in with knowledge, ceasing to be places of mystery and instead becoming places of darkness. The passage reflects on how childhood wonder and imagination give way to adult disillusionment with imperialism and colonialism.
Foucault’s Symbolic Narrative Hypothesis
This document discusses Michel Foucault's work and proposes a "symbolic narrative hypothesis" to help explain some aspects of his writings. It argues that Foucault structured his analysis of modernity around eternal forms or "aeonian forms" that emanate from an infinite substance. While Foucault did not explicitly discuss this esoteric perspective, the document suggests it was an "unspoken" influence based on similarities with classical esoteric philosophy, Islamic philosophy, and Foucault's engagement with the works of Henri Corbin. Foucault may have used these symbolic forms and signatures to communicate insights about order and resemblance in a way that leaves symbolic narratives "unspoken."

Antonin is a founder of the VII photo agency which is an international photo agency which is owned and controlled by only the members. It was launched at the Visa pour l'image Festival France in the town of Perpignan in September 2001. This was one of his own great achievements but eventually, he was suspended from the VII Photo Agency after sexual harassment allegations were made upon him despite he continued to deny those.
More on his personal life, he was born in 1947 in a town called Litomerice in Czechoslovakia and eventually pursued his studies in photography in Netherlands where he got his BFA in Photography at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam.
Antonin Kratochvil specializes mostly in documenting the world's hot topic or showing how a refugee life is by depicting those realities in his pictures. He would provide his own personal experience towards those events together with those affected in it in order to provide a true aspect of the reality we are all living in but decide to ignore it sometimes.
" He took pictures in the Mongolia's street children for the magazine published by the Museum of Natural History to a portrait session with David Bowie for Detour, from covering the war in Iraq for Fortune Magazine to shooting Deborah Harry for a national advertising campaign for the American Civil Liberties Union, Kratochvil's ability to see through and into his subjects and show immutable truth has made his pictures not facsimiles but uncensored visions." - From Antonin's website.
During his years of being a professional photographer, he had a widespread of publications examining various topics and interests as from the description above taken from Antonin's website. This sum up a lot of his jobs and only shows that he is versatile to a lot of topics of interests and also he is keen to try new ways to target his audience. We can see from one side that he is willing to raise awareness upon topics that we often ignore or forget in our busy society. However, he also merges into the world of celebrities and fame by depicting portraits of those icons of the industry while at the same time giving his art more value in terms of audience. This can be seen as a strategy for himself in order to raise awareness for his other art as people will still keep up with his work either through celebrities or through his pictures about real world issues.
Some of his pictures can be shown as below:

A time loop is a plot device where periods of time are repeatedly experienced by characters, with the hope of breaking the cycle. Time loops constantly reset when a condition is met, such as a character's death or a clock reaching a certain time, with one or more characters retaining memories from previous loops. Stories with time loops center on characters learning from each successive loop through time to eventually solve the problem and exit the loop.Aise 171201170352-190306194138

Human reproduction planning is the practice of intentionally controlling the rate of growth of a human population. Historically, human population planning has been implemented with the goal of increasing the rate of human population growth. However, in the period from the 1950s to the 1980s, concerns about global population growth and its effects on poverty, environmental degradation and political stability led to efforts to reduce human population growth rates. More recently, some countries, such as China, Iran, and Spain, have begun efforts to increase their birth rates once again. While population planning can involve measures that improve people's lives by giving them greater control of their reproduction, a few programs, most notably the Chinese government's "one-child policy and two-child policy", have resorted to coercive measures.Time loop-carlo-m-rosa-

Quantum physics describes the behavior of matter and radiation as both particle phenomena and wave phenomena (wave-particle duality). This reconciles the classical Newtonian view of particles and waves with experimental evidence. Schrödinger and Heisenberg developed complementary mathematical formulations of quantum mechanics in the 1920s that made the same predictions, though they disagreed on interpretations like quantum jumps. Important applications of quantum theory include lasers, semiconductors, MRI, and explanations of biological phenomena. Wave-particle duality addresses how quantum objects exhibit both wave and particle properties, which classical physics cannot fully explain. While it remains puzzling, most physicists accept wave-particle duality as the best available explanation for now.Georgesoros

Rave sindrome
The document summarizes the history and evolution of the Full Moon Party, an all-night beach party that originated on Ko Pha Ngan island in Thailand. It began in the 1980s as impromptu gatherings on the beach for 20-30 travelers listening to psychedelic trance music. Over time, the parties grew in popularity through word of mouth. Now attracting up to 30,000 people each full moon, they have become a major fixture on the tourist circuit in Asia, though local authorities have expressed concerns over noise, drugs, and crime and have imposed restrictions. Safety issues include drug use, assaults, and injuries from broken glass.

Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is a rare, highly drug-resistant form of TB caused by bacteria resistant to the most effective anti-TB drugs. XDR-TB develops when individuals with multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) do not complete or improperly take their medication regimen. Diagnosis requires culturing the bacteria and testing drug susceptibility, which can take 6-16 weeks. Treatment involves extensive chemotherapy with second-line drugs for up to two years, which are more toxic and expensive than standard TB treatment. XDR-TB has a high mortality rate due to limited treatment options.Extensively drug
This document summarizes extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB). XDR-TB is a form of TB caused by bacteria resistant to the most effective anti-TB drugs. It develops after mismanagement of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) cases. Diagnosis requires culturing bacteria and testing drug susceptibility, which can take 6-16 weeks. Treatment requires long-term use of toxic second-line drugs. XDR-TB prevalence is unknown as many countries lack diagnostic capabilities, but an estimated 40,000 cases occur annually. Proper TB control and management, along with new diagnostic and treatment tools, are needed to address this challenging form of TB.
Italy
The document expresses frustration with the current state of Italy and a belief that things will improve with a new generation. Specifically:
1) Italy has highly skilled and intellectually honest people, but the country has been reduced to a place run by puppets and corrupt politicians.
2) The author is angry when they see a country where criminals proliferate and the law enforcement fails to pursue real criminals, instead targeting honest citizens.
3) However, the author is confident that with a new generation and a stronger European Union, Italy will be able to take back control of the country from this dysfunctional state.

The project involved using an innovative application of photography to capture light field information and visualize quantum wave-particle duality. Over 9 years, the artist photographed in New York City before, during and after 9/11 to create 111 images exploring metaphysical concepts. Experts said the work achieved a new form of visual semiotics to portray reality through precise and realistic imagery. The innovation allowed generating multiple perspectives from a single photo and transferring photographic information without loss.Italy

The kaos theory
This document attempts to summarize and explain the concept of chaos theory through Kabbalistic teachings. It discusses how chaos exists in the world despite the presence of light, due to universal laws like "bread of shame" and "no coercion in spirituality." According to Kabbalah, chaos arises when light withdraws to avoid overwhelming creation, allowing darkness to settle. True understanding requires exploring the immaterial realm beyond just the physical. Spirituality refers to connecting to the creator through free will, not coercion. Overall the document uses Kabbalistic concepts to provide a metaphysical perspective on chaos theory.

FRANZ KAFKA
- 1. -"THE KAFKAESQUE METHOD"- -FRANZ KAFKA 3 JULY 1883 / 3 JUNE 1924 (AGED 40)- For the people whom , like myself, truly "loves" the Great philosopher and writer , the genius “ of the surrealism” and they knows his “concept” as well have red his short novels and his stories etc.etc.etc , this post ,"will be", I think, very interesting in to understand better, "some facts" about the evolution and distortion of the "Kafkaesque" thinking: °His work, which fuses elements of realism and the fantastic, typically features isolated protagonists faced by bizarre or surrealistic predicaments and incomprehensible social-bureaucratic powers, has been interpreted as exploring themes of alienation , existential anxiety , guilt and absurdity . *I have found interesting myself in to "analyze"as the Franz Kafka's philosophy has "changed" over the time. >To read Kafka, instead, it is as if you were placed in front of the man in his dramatic nudity and truth, no or almost no ideological narcosis. It is the great merit of the authentic writers: Literature, in fact, always has to do with the truth and never with fiction, though almost always uses the fiction just to bear witness to the truth. -His "philosophy", if properly interpreted and translated, "argued" that The contemporary man misinterprets his desire, translating it into the logic of need and consumption. -The market is fueled by this deception, creating objects and needs to fill our empty; distracted by many stimuli that are imposed and do not belong to us, we are no longer able to find the authentic dimension of ourselves. -The culture of today, which is the period of consumption, is based exactly on deception that presents desire as an elaborate form of need: You continue to talk about desire as something which can find contentment in the possession of objects , money , power...; It keeps saying "enjoy! and don't worry about on the other” . -"The loss , the bewilderment and the constant desire for something in which they never find a sense":
- 2. From this point of view we must not believe that there are some recipes or that exist any software which can order once and for all, a scene which by its nature is irrepressible and uncountable so it is quite clear on the one hand, as the author wanted to empty every ontological structure of myth . -It's bizarre that when Franz Kafka was alive, few of his works were published and today "his concept it has become , I “would say”, crucial , especially in the sectors of the modern filmmaking production and in the areas of the media -advertising disclosure ; It is a fundamental "for the semantics and the semiotics, in many areas relating to the "mass media comunication-marketing-politic-economy etc. etc. etc.": -The "kafkaesque vision”, it has been translated , manipulated , marketed and distorted in "our era", for the use by those whom want to manipulate, mislead, mystify: BUT KAFKA WAS NOT KAFKAESQUE AT ALL. -COMPARATIVE DIFFERENTIAL METHOD- -THE CASE OF KAFKA- -Translating the "Kafka's thought" we understand that His Comparative differential method that then it becomes only literary but almost philosophical-hermeneutic, because the translation Act all play on differentiation and on distance of the learning and research, in an experience that is providing access to otherness respecting its plurality of sign, signifier and signified. -ANYWAY I THINK “I WILL LOOK MORE INTO THE TOPIC”, MEANWHILE I HOPE THAT YOU HAVE FOUND "THIS SHORT READING" INTERESTING.
