"The topic of "Kafka after Kafka" is a fascinating one: the engagement of artists,
philosophers, and critics in dialogical exchange with Kafka's works. The present collection
of new essays highlights the engagement of lesser known artists and commentators with
Kafka, and represents those who are well known, such as Arendt, Blanchot, Nabokov,
and Coetzee, from new perspectives. The eleven essays contained here represent the
most recent scholarly engagements with this topic. An essay on major trends in current
Kafka criticism provides background for several essays on novelists, philosophers,
and critics whose relationship to Kafka is not very well known. A section devoted
to Kafka from an Israeli perspective includes artists not commonly known in the US
or Europe (Ya'acov Shteinberg, Hezi Leskly, Sayed Kashua), as well as an essay on
the recent trial in Israel regarding the fate of Kafka's literary legacy. A final
section addresses important contemporary approaches to Kafka in film studies, animal
studies, the graphic novel, and in postmodern culture and counterculture. Contributors:
