KAFKA VAI À ESCOLA – METAMORFOSE, FREUD, RANCIÈRE E ADORNO

Abstract

Gregor Samsa, one morning, upon waking up, realizes that he had become a cockroach. Cockroaches are the totemic representation of the paralysis of the intellect, and Gregor's room represents what is of the order of the psychic. The traditional school is cheap. Only in the domain of what is internal, Gregor Samsa does not interfere in the world and his attempt at revolt does not appear in the subject. The system is so orchestrated by its apparatus that even in its absence, it is present. Away from the real oppressor, who profits from all the quarrels inside the Samsa residence, they all reveal the true character of what they are, Freudian parapraxia; everyone turns out to be system employees. In the classroom, it is no different. Gregor Samsa is the stupid student. This is a work of bibliographic review, in which a critical reading of the theme is sought. The purpose of this article is to detect possible links between the work Metamorphosis with school education. The fantastic brought by Kafka permeates the social criticism of a time that can be connected with the pedagogical process. The baratal objectified being is the silhouette of the school student. When Rancière points the way to intellectual emancipation, he wants to claim the individual's right to assume his will and his intelligence. Kafka, Rancière and Adorno signal us: there is an organized world that orthopedizes our thinking. In an attempt to make the content understand, the teacher-system interrupts the movement of reason, destroys confidence in itself, expels the proper path of acquisition by offering the disconnected image from the path of the other, the teacher.
