Description:
This is a book of many firsts--the first wide-ranging study of Kafka from the standpoint of the history of the body; the first attempt to understand Kafka's writing through turn-of-the-century discourse about the Jewish body; the first attempt to write a history of the period's debates about ritual slaughter and animal rights; and the first attempt to relate nineteenth-century myths about Jewishness and illness to the treatment of Jews in the Holocaust.
