Kafka's Dream Work in Valery Podoroga's Interpretation

This article reflects on the connection established by Valery Podoroga, between philosophical anthropology and geophilosophy. There are two major philosophical directions that converge in Podoroga's work, which he calls the metaphysics of the landscape and analytical anthropology. The mediator between a human being and a landscape is the body which Podoroga thinks of phenomenologically, as an experience of existence in the world in general and in the work of literature as a metaphysical landscape in particular. The article analyses the modes of such mediation in the book Parabola: Franz Kafka and the Construction of the Dream, in which Kafka's work is discussed as a dream world.
