Nahum Norbert Glatzer Books
Nahum Norbert Glatzer was a distinguished Jewish literary scholar, theologian, and editor whose work illuminated the richness of Jewish thought and tradition. He played a crucial role in disseminating key Jewish writings, notably overseeing the English translations of Franz Kafka's works and contributing to critical editions in Germany. Glatzer also delved into the lives and ideas of significant thinkers like Franz Rosenzweig and curated seminal anthologies of Jewish sources. His scholarship offers profound insights into the enduring legacy of Jewish intellectual history.
This collection of new translations brings together the small proportion of Kafka's works that he himself thought worthy of publication. It includes Metamorphosis, his most famous work, an exploration of horrific transformation and alienation; Meditation, a collection of his earlier studies; The Judgement, written in a single night of frenzied creativity; The Stoker, the first chapter of a novel set in America and a fascinating occasional piece, and The Aeroplanes at Brescia, Kafka's eyewitness account of an air display in 1909. Together, these stories reveal the breadth of Kafka's literary vision and the extraordinary imaginative depth of his thought.
