Bøker av Allen Thiher

Drawing on a distinguished 40-year university career, Allen Thiher probes the subjects that serve as a basis for higher education in the twenty-first century. Addressing the general reader as well as the scholar, he argues that all the best about contemporary culture springs directly from the unfettered rationalism of the Enlightenment.

Franz Kafka is without question one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century. In Understanding Franz Kafka, Allen Thiher addresses the development of Kafka's work by analysing it in terms of its chronological unfolding, emphasizing the various phases in Kafka's life that can be discerned in his constant quest to find a meaning for his writing.
