In bringing together both...

Philosophy and Kafka
ISBN: 9781498511261 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The relationship of philosophy with Kafka's oeuvre is complex.

These matters are the focus of the proposed volume on Philosophy and Kafka. The proposed collection brings together essays that interrogate the relationship of philosophy and Kafka, and offer new and original...
