Mit Bezug auf den Käferkörper von Gregor Samsa in der Erzählung »Die Verwandlung« schreibt Anders: »[…] er schöpft aus dem vorgefundenen Bestand, dem Bildcharakter, der Sprache. Die metaphorischen Worte nimmt er beim Wort.« 1 Seit Anders hat Kafkas Beim-Wort-Nehmen der Metapher eine wichtige Rolle in der Kafka-Forschung gespielt. In Bezug auf die »Verwandlung« schreibt Theodor W. Adorno 1955: »›Diese Reisenden sind wie Wanzen‹, heißt die Redensart, die Kafka aufgegriffen haben muß, aufgespießt wie ein Insekt. Wanzen, nicht wie die Wanzen.« 2 Eine Metapher aufzuspießen heißt hier, den bruchlosen metaphorischen Übergang vom sinnlichen Bildteil zur übertragenen Bedeutung zu destruieren. In seinem Aufsatz »The Metamorphosis: Metamorphosis of the Metaphor« beschreibt Stanley Corngold ebenfalls Gregor Samsas Metamorphose als eine »Verwörtlichung« (»literalization«) einer Metapher. Nach Corngold produziert eine solche Verwörtlichung ein rhetorisches Ungeheuer, das als eine Destruktion und Dekonstruktion der metaphorischen Sprache zu deuten ist. 3 Es läßt sich nicht leugnen, daß die verwörtlichte Metapher ein wichtiges Stilelement in Kafkas Prosa ist. An manchen Stellen wirkt die Verwandlung von Figur in empirisches Faktum fast demonstrativ. »Ich will ein Hundsfott sein, wenn ich das zulasse«, sagt der europäische Reisende unvorsichtigerweise in der Skizze eines alternativen Abschlusses zur Er-

This article will interpret the central notion of justice in Dostoevsky in the conceptual framework of the theory of recognition as it is put forward in Hegel's early Jenaer Realphilosophie.

In the modern age, architecture and spatial design have been mobilized as remedies to further the health of the individual patient and of the population in general. In order to understand the present type of medicalization – as opposed to the early modern and classical modern types – we suggest a distinction between two kinds of biopolitics, in Michel Foucault’s sense of this term, respectively a biopolitics of bodies and a biopolitics of feelings. If the original medicalization was a somatic biopolitics, the contemporary medicalization could be described as an affective biopolitics, we claim. We focus on the ongoing boom in the construction of new hospitals in Denmark, discussing as empirical cases a planned hospital in Northern Zealand and a “multisensorial” delivery room in Herning, a Danish provincial town.

Artiklen søger at forklare Kierkegaards interesse for tragedieskæbnen med to teser: at Kierkegaard bruger tragedieskæbnen som symbolsk form, og at han bruger tragedieskæbnens symbolske form til at forstå subjektets rationalitet. Det er et begreb Holm har hentet fra Judith Butler.
