About :

This is a lecture from the course "Kafka and Kafkaesque". In it, philologist Maxim Zhuk helps to understand why Kafka's name became a household word, what meanings the writer himself could put into his works, and what else can be read in them. This course is about the terrible 20th century, which is so ominously reflected in Kafka's works, and about the writer himself, who was not so gloomy at all, had many friends, was a favorite of women, knew how to joke, and led a healthy lifestyle.
