They talk about writing (Kafka's own, but also that of his favorite writers: Poe, Kleist, and Rimbaud, who transforms vowels into colors) as well as technology, film, crime, Darwinism, Chinese philosophy, carpentry, insomnia, street fights, Hindu scripture, art, suicide, and prayer. Prayer, Kafka notes, brings its infinite radiance to bed in the frail little cradle of one's own existence. …

J. Enright, Gavin Ewart, Elizabeth Jennings. ***'The first - and incomplete - edition of Gustav Janouch's memoir of Kafka was published in 1951, and it immediately took its place as a valuable and fascinating source-book for literary research. Yet for many years the author was unhappy with the version, the fragmentation of which he thought was the fault of Max Brod to whom the original manuscript had been sent. But in this he was mistaken. As it turned out, a large part of the original text - which was based on Janouch's youthful diaries and his manuscript "Treasury of Ideas" - had never been sent off to Brod for publication. Janouch was at the time (1947) under arrest in a Prague prison; and although he was innocent, his wife had burned his papers during the year-long interrogations. As Janouch writes in a post-script to a new edition(shortly to be published by Andre Deutsch in London, and New Directions in New York), "The mutilated book became a spiritual torment to me. I was an important witness who refused to testify." Luckily enough, a missing copy of his old "Treasury of Ideas" (originally put together two years after the death of Kafka in 1924) did turn up in a dilapidated old cardboard box on the bookshelves of the lavatory of Janouch's old house in Prague's Nationalstrasse. These papers included the missing sections of his "Conversations with Kafka" --- "Max Brod had not wilfully bowdlerised my book. He had not omitted or supressed a single paragraph. I had been unjust to him for years." The following extracts (translated by Goronwy Rees) are from this new, and previously missing, material. The self-caricature (on p.19) and the other drawings in the text are from Kafka's own notebooks.' [Taken from notes accompanying the article] ***'Encounter was a literary magazine founded in 1953 by poet Stephen Spender and journalist Irving Kristol. It was a largely Anglo-American intellectual and cultural journal, originally associated with the anti-Stalinist left. The magazine received covert funding from the Central Intelligence Agency, after the CIA and MI6 discussed the founding of an "Anglo-American left-of-centre publication" intended to counter the idea of cold war neutralism. The magazine was rarely critical of American foreign policy and generally shaped its content to support the geopolitical interests of the United States government. The launch of Encounter was sponsored by the Paris-based Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF), which was an organization of largely centre-left artists and intellectuals founded in 1950. It was dedicated, in line with its title, to countering on behalf of the non-communist West the overtures and influence in culture of the Soviet Union, still under the Communist Party rule of Joseph Stalin until 1953. Encounter celebrated its greatest years in terms of readership and influence during the 1960s, under Melvin J. Lasky, who succeeded Kristol in 1958, and would serve as the main editor until the magazine ceased publication in 1991.

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. Nach den ersten beiden deutschen Ausgaben von Janouchs Buch begannen kritische Studien über die Authentizität des Werkes zu entstehen. Kritiker sind sich in der positiven literarischen Bewertung einig, glauben jedoch wenig an die vollständige Wahrhaftigkeit. Viele betrachten es als eine freiere Interpretation der Beziehung des Autors zu Kafka. Die Publikation ist interessant geschrieben. Janouch beschreibt Begegnungen und Gespräche mit Kafkas Kollegen aus der Unfallversicherung. Kafka wird als weiser, sensibler und verständnisvoller Mensch dargestellt, der jedoch meist missverstanden wird und pessimistisch in die Zukunft blickt. Die Gespräche drehen sich um grundlegende Themen, sowohl philosophische und religiöse als auch literarische und künstlerische Probleme. Kafka erwähnt auch zahlreiche bekannte Persönlichkeiten und aktuelle Ereignisse. Die Publikation enthält eine Bildbeilage sowie umfangreiche Anmerkungen und ein Nachwort.…
