About the Book

"La metamorfosis" ("Die Verwandlung", en su título original en alemán) es un relato de Franz Kafka, publicado en 1915 y que narra la historia de Gregor Samsa, un comerciante de telas que vive con su familia a la que él mantiene con su sueldo, quien un día amanece convertido en un enorme insecto (aparentemente, una cucaracha, aunque no se identifica claramente en el texto). En ocasiones el título es traducido como "La transformación". Esto se debe a que en cualquier diccionario de alemán, la voz "Verwandlung" corresponde a "cambio", "transformación", "conversión", "reducción", "mutación", y solo como "Metamorfosis" cuando apunta al lenguaje de la mitología clásica. De hecho, la palabra en alemán para denominar Metamorfosis, es "Metamorphose", término que registra claramente su equivalencia y que le haría prescindir de la voz Verwandlung para su traslación idiomática. Esto supone además, la existencia de otro sustantivo con valor semántico independiente. Por ello, y además, optar por la palabra metamorfosis podría significar elegir un sustantivo muy concreto y atinente a cierto sector de la literatura, como es en este caso, la griega. De ahí en adelante "pueden cometerse errores hermenéuticos peculiares y sesgados, como valorizar la obra por su carácter de 'fantástica transmutación' o 'suceso extraordinario', tan propios de las artes escritas en Grecia, pero impropias en la narrativa Kafkiana". Fue incluida en la serie Great Books of the 20th Century ("Grandes libros del siglo XX"), publicada por Penguin Books.
About the Author: Franz Kafka (Praga, Imperio austrohúngaro, 3 de julio de 1883 - Kierling, Austria, 3 de junio de 1924) fue un escritor de origen judío nacido en Bohemia que escribió en alemán. Su obra está considerada como una de las más influyentes de la literatura universal y está llena de temas y arquetipos sobre la alienación, la brutalidad física y psicológica, los conflictos entre padres e hijos, personajes en aventuras terroríficas, laberintos de burocracia, y transformaciones místicas. Fue autor de tres novelas, "El proceso" ("Der Prozeß"), "El castillo" ("Das Schloß") y "El desaparecido" ("Amerika" o "Der Verschollene"), la novela corta "La metamorfosis" ("Die Verwandlung") y un gran número de relatos cortos. Además, dejó una abundante correspondencia y escritos autobiográficos. Su peculiar estilo literario ha sido comúnmente asociado con la filosofía artística del existencialismo -al que influenció- y el expresionismo, y en algún nivel se lo ha comparado con el realismo mágico. Estudiosos de Kafka discuten sobre cómo interpretar al autor, algunos hablan de la posible influencia de alguna ideología política antiburocrática, de una religiosidad mística o de una reivindicación de su minoría etnocultural, mientras otros se fijan en el contenido psicológico de sus obras. Sus relaciones personales también tuvieron gran impacto en su escritura, particularmente su padre ("Carta al padre"), su prometida Felice Bauer ("Cartas a Felice") y su hermana ("Cartas a Ottla"). Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Jorge Luis Borges y Gabriel García Márquez se encuentran entre los escritores influenciados por los escritos de Kafka; el término "kafkiano" se usa en el idioma español para describir situaciones surrealistas como las que se encuentran en sus libros y tiene sus equivalentes en otros idiomas. Solo unas pocas de sus obras fueron publicadas durante su vida. La mayor parte, incluyendo trabajos incompletos, fueron publicados por su amigo Max Brod, quien ignoró los deseos del autor de que los manuscritos fueran destruidos.
