The Trial by Franz Kafka Question:
Within the narrative space of The Trial, bureaucracy creates existential struggles because it causes one to feel confined, disassociated, and guilty. Analyze these textual themes and their effect upon K. Provide textual evidence to support your claims.
Paper 3 must incorporate 2 secondary non-fiction sources. One source must be Foucault's "Panopticism." The second source should discuss the themes of confinement or guilt. Do not select a source that writes about The Trial. In your analysis demonstrate how the theories in the non-fiction sources inform Kafka's text. At least 2 of the 3 texts should be placed into conversation in every body paragraph.
Paper 3 should focus on the first half of The Trial, Chapters 1-5(eBook pages 1-150, paperback pages 1-80 approximately). The rough draft should be approximately 3 pages. Use of LLM AI is prohibited.
