This research seeks to analyze the reception of the works of the Jewish writer Franz Kafka in Hannah Arendt's political thought since Arendt mentions Kafka and his writings at different times throughout her works, for instance: in Between past and future (1961 - 1968), in The Life of the mind (1977), and essays such as Franz Kafka: a Revaluation (1944), The Jew as pariah (1944), and the essay on Walter Benjamin (1968). We will start from the assumption that in the various moments in which Kafka appears in Arendt's works, it is to, somehow, elucidate the contemporary context of perplexity resulting from the rupture in tradition, therefore we intend to answer the following question: what is the depth of this reception of Kafka in Arendt's political thought, what is the meaning of his presence and the context in which he appears in the Arendt’s works? Since she sees in the writer a representative of the typification of the pariah, the exemplary pariah, as the man of goodwill, who, through his figure and his writings, thinks about the different faces and layers of contemporary fragmentation.
