Metamorphosis Of A Father And A Child

Metamorphosis of a father and a child

Introduction

This took the father-son relationship to an irreparable point, where Kafka sought in a certain way to obtain that approval by this "the opinion of me depended on you much more than any other thing" (Ibid., p.fifteen). Of course, this unfinished with Kafka’s death in 1924, whose cause was tuberculosis. Relationship between metamorphosis and letter to father. Metamorphosis tells us the story of Gregoria Samsa, who in a morning awake turned into a horrendous insect and monsters.

Developing

As history progresses, you can see the change in Gregorio’s family, who no longer contributes economically and becoming a “horrible insect parasite ‘begins to be marginalized relegated and confined to his dark and gloomy room, being in that situation in that situationGregorio marginalization begins to forget what it was to be a "human" and increasingly yields to instincts that his conversion into insect bring him. In this work we notice how the father’s vision is imposing against Gregory, because he is turned into an insect looks at the figure of his very "huge" father.

Someone who had enormous respect is also proven on the two occasions in which the father assaulted Gregorio, because the response of this was submissive and of total obedience, to the point of just lowering his head even when he was being hurt. In the letter to the father, Kafka confesses "what I wrote tried you, I just lamented there from what I could not regret reclining in your chest".

Which tells us that Kafka’s father has always been present in one way or another in his works.

Therefore, Gregorio’s father can be a projection of the author’s father and Gregorio Una de Kafka, from the point of view in which he is converted into an insect returns to the lower, dependent, obedient and above all fearful before the father, feelings that the author makes very clear in the letter to the father and that we can show in the following appointments of both works;Why had he been condemned to provide his services to a company in which the smallest carelessness was immediately conceived the greatest suspicion?

Kafka’s father had a store of which Kafka could never take care, in the letter to the father he expresses his disagreement with the treatment he gave to his employees. Abuse that we have evidenced in metamorphosis with Gregory and the immediate suspicion of the warehouse. Another part that I would like to highlight is the part where the father arrives from work and the sister tells him that Gregoria has escaped, this because clearly demonstrates the inferiority complex that Gregorio had acquired.

He raised his feet at a unusual height and Gregory of astonishment to the huge size of the soles of his boots. But Gregorio was not standing, he already knew from the first day of his new life, that the father with respect to him only considered the greatest rigidity timely. The accentuation to the size of the father’s boots makes this little passage in the face of the father “the child of such slow development, and you, the man made and right, we were going to behave reciprocally.

conclusion

It would have been assumed that you would simply crush me with a stomp ". Where you can see that feeling of inferiority, fear and above all submission before the father figure clearly. Finally we also have the mother’s relationship, it is known that this was the intermediary between Kafka and her father, in addition that Kafka himself admits that this was a kind of salvation, which does not remain.
