Join author and scholar Benjamin Balint for a live virtual lecture on the international struggle to preserve Franz Kafka’s literary legacy. Balint will discuss the legal, ethical, and political dilemmas of a writer whose last wish was betrayed by his closest friend; a wrenching escape from Nazi invaders as the gates of Europe closed; a love affair between exiles stranded in Tel Aviv, and two countries whose obsessions with overcoming the traumas of the past came to a head in Israel’s Supreme Court. Held on Zoom, global audiences are invited to consider their own cultural connections to one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.
