Intertextual operations around Kafka and Judaism: Two novels by Moacyr Scliar

Abstracts

EN

Os Leopardos de Kafka (2000) and O Centauro no Jardim (1980) by Moacyr Scliar are fictions which compel us to think about the processes of hybridization nesting in every border crossing (linguistic and corporal) when diasporic subjects abandon consolidated values and put into play the notion of belonging. This essay investigates the intertextual relations between the two authors and highlights how the deterritorialized condition of Kafka’s writing and the metamorphosis which informs all translation-interpretation constitute a fertile perspective from which to approach Scliar’s novels.
