卡夫卡的长篇小说《城堡》并非只揭示了现代人在荒诞世界中的境遇,还隐含着作者对人类出路何在的深入思考。K千方百计为进入城堡的努力是徒劳的,但这个坚持不懈的过程却代表着人类不屈精神的胜利,和海明威笔下的桑提亚哥有相似之处。这其实是一种西绪福斯精神。 Kafka’s novel “Castle” does not only reveal the modern man in the absurd world situation, but also implies the author’s way of thinking about where human beings go. In every possible way, K is futile to enter the castle, but this perseverance represents the triumph of man’s unyielding spirit, similar to that of Santiago, by Hemingway. This is actually a kind of Western Horizons spirit.
