%0 Journal Article %T Kafka y el ocaso de la metš¢fora animal: Notas sobre la voz narradora en "Investigaciones de un perro" %A Yelin %A Julieta %J Anclajes %D 2011 %I Scientific Electronic Library Online %X franz kafka's animal stories are contemporary with the first philosophic questionings of the so-called metaphysics of subjectivity. this paper proposes an examination of that synchronism through an analysis of the narrative voice in the story "investigations of a dog". we start, on one hand, from the hypothesis that, in this story, it is possible to find a particular way of thinking about animals and animality, one that is linked to the task of taking the animal metaphor apart; and, on the other hand, from the idea that this thought enables a dialogue with the reflections of post-humanist philosophy, that is oriented towards the creation of a non-anthropocentric theoretical perspective. %K metaphor %K animal %K posthumanism %K franz kafka %K investigations of a dog. %U http://www.scielo.org.ar/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S1851-46692011000100006&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
