About this ebook
"A Country Doctor" (German: "Ein Landarzt") is a short story written in 1919 by Franz Kafka. It was first published in the collection of short stories of the same title.
Die Erzählung "Ein Landarzt" von Franz Kafka entstand im Jahr 1917 und wurde 1918 veröffentlicht. Im Jahre 1920 erschien – nach mehreren kriegsbedingten Verzögerungen – das Buch "Ein Landarzt" mit der Erzählung gleichen Titels und dreizehn weiteren Prosatexten im Verlag Kurt Wolff. Das Buch enthält die Widmung: "Meinem Vater". Drei Stücke hiervon waren vorab bereits in der Zweimonatsschrift "Marsyas" erschienen. Zahlreiche Prosastücke des Erzählbandes wurden durch Träume Kafkas angeregt, die er vorab in seinen Tagebüchern beschrieb.
Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka was born to Jewish parents in Bohemia in 1883. Kafka’s father was a luxury goods retailer who worked long hours and as a result never became close with his son. Kafka’s relationship with his father greatly influenced his later writing and directly informed his Brief an den Vater (Letter to His Father). Kafka had a thorough education and was fluent in both German and Czech. As a young man, he was hired to work at an insurance company where he was quickly promoted despite his desire to devote his time to writing rather than insurance. Over the course of his life, Kafka wrote a great number of stories, letters, and essays, but burned the majority of his work before his death and requested that his friend Max Brod burn the rest. Brod, however, did not fulfill this request and published many of the works in the years following Kafka’s death of tuberculosis in 1924. Thus, most of Kafka’s works were published posthumously, and he did not live to see them recognized as some of the most important examples of literature of the twentieth century. Kafka’s works are considered among the most significant pieces of existentialist writing, and he is remembered for his poignant depictions of internal conflicts with alienation and oppression. Some of Kafka’s most famous works include The Metamorphosis, The Trial and The Castle.
