The Importance Of Effective Written Communication

The Importance Of Effective Written Communication A communication has two ends to the stick it is composed of a speakers intention and a listeners reception of what is said. -Linda Slakey. Communication is neither transmission of message nor message itself but it is the mutual exchange of understanding, originating with the receiver. Effective communication is very necessary in business. Communication is an essence of management. The basic functions of management i.e. Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Directing and Controlling cannot be performed well without effective communication. Business communication involves constant flow of information. Feedback is an integral part of business communication. Organizations these days are very large and it involves number of people. There are various levels of hierarchy in an organization. Greater the number of levels, more difficult is the job of managing the organization. Communication here plays a very important role in process of directing and controlling the people in organization. Immediate feedback can be obtained and misunderstandings if any can be avoided. There should be effective communication between superiors and subor dinated in an organization, between organization and society at large. It is very essential for success and growth of an organization. Communication gaps should not occur in any organization. Business Communication is basically goal oriented. The rules, regulations and policies of the company have to be communicated to people within and outside the organization. Business Communication is regulated by certain rules and norms. In early times, business communication was limited only to paper-work, telephone calls etc. But now with advent of technology, we have cell phones, video conferencing, emails, and satellite communication which support business communication. Effective business communication helps in building goodwill of an organization. Business Communication can be of two types: Oral Communication An oral communication can be formal or informal. Generally business communication is a formal means of communication, like: meetings, interviews, group discussion, speeches etc. Grapevine is an example of Informal business communication. Written Communication Written means of business communication includes agenda, reports, manual, letters, journals etc. WRITTEN COMMUNICATION The University of North Carolina defines written communication as, clear expression of ideas in writing; includes grammar, organization, and structure. To put it simply, written communication is communication by means of written symbols that is communicated by or to or between people or groups. Thus, written communication is presentation of ideas or essays that make a clear point, supply details supporting that point and demonstrate unity and coherence of thought. It can be in form of letters, memos, circulars, bulletins, reports, instruction cards, manuals, magazines etc. The Importance of Effective Written Communication Effective written communication is an important aspect of business and personal communication because it sends messages that are flat, lacking other elements of communication such as tone of voice, body language and gestures. Written communication can be confusing, offensive and ineffective if it is poorly written, uses vague terminology or doesnt provide concrete definitions for message attempting to be sent. Importance of effective communication is: Print this article Purpose The purpose of effective written communication is to send a message with the intention of the receiver understanding the message and responding to it. For example, if a supervisor needs to get a profit-and-loss statement to his manager, he may print it out, email it or fax it with the required information in writing. If the purpose of written communication is not achieved, the needed information may not be understood, which can cause the manager to appear to his superior as being unorganized or unable to perform her duties appropriately. Requirements Effective written communication should use appropriate spelling, punctuations and grammar. It communicates the information in such a way that the reader can understand, logically organizes the information, takes into consideration the format and style of writing based on the who its intended for and accurately outlines the information. Outcome The outcome of effective written communication is purpose, productivity and clear direction. Written communication has become integrated into daily life through email, text messaging and online chats. If written communication is effective, the receivers know what is expected and how to accomplish the goals. If its ineffective, more time will be spent to clarify than was originally needed. Types Written communication is any form of using written words to send a message. The different types of written communication are a handwritten letter, typed letter, email, text message and online chatting. Consideration Written communication is appropriate in one situation, but may be inappropriate in others. For example, if a person is supposed to appear in court, calling the court house is an ineffective way to communicate with the government. Written communication is expected and functional way to communicate with the government. In order for communication to be effective, it must be sent to the appropriate people. For example, if a person has an issue with his boss, sending a letter to the customer service department would be ineffective way of communication because that department handles external complaints, not employee issues. IMPORTANCE OF WRITTEN COMMUNICATION Written communication has great significance in todays business world. It is an innovative activity of mind. Effective written communication is essential for preparing worthy promotional materials for business development. Speech came before writing, but writing is more unique and formal than speech. Effective writing involves careful choice of words, their organization in correct order in sentences formation as well as cohesive composition of sentences. Also, writing is more valid and reliable than speech. Advantages are: Written communication helps in laying down apparent principles, policies, procedures and rules for running of an organization. It is a permanent means of communication. Thus, it is very useful where record maintenance is required. It helps in proper delegation of responsibilities. While in case of oral communication, it is impossible to fix and delegate responsibilities on the grounds of speech as it can be taken back by the speaker. Written communication is more precise and explicit. Effective written communication develops and enhances an organizations image and reputation. It provides ready records and references. Legal defences can depend upon written communication as it provides valid records. DISADVANTAGES OF WRITTEN COMMUNICATION Written communication does not save upon the costs. It costs huge in terms of stationery and manpower employed in writing/typing and delivering letters. If the receivers of the written message are separated by distance and if they need to clear their doubts, the response is not spontaneous. Written communication is time-consuming as the feedback is not immediate in this case. The encoding and sending of message takes time. Effective written communication requires great skills and competencies in language and vocabulary use. Poor writing skills and quality have a negative impact on organizations image. Too much paper work and e-mails burden is involved. GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVE WRITTEN COMMUNICATION In a personal or business setting, the ability to effectively communicate through written correspondence is a must. Written communication can take on many forms including email, text messages, memos, or letters. No matter what format you are using, there are a few basic rules you should follow to ensure that written communication is correct and effective. These are: Simplicity Use simple sentence structure should be there. Complex sentence structure can complicate what you are trying to say and can be easily misunderstood. Sentences should be concise and to the point. Instead of saying I would like to schedule a meeting to discuss the pertinent facts of the case at your earliest convenience, it should rather said Please let me know when we can meet to discuss the case. Avoid Jargon Use jargon or language that only select group of individuals understand should not be used. Written communication should be accessible to your audience, no matter who you are communicating with. Technical language and jargon should only be used when more simplistic language will not work. Specificity Provide specific details whenever possible and avoid writing in ambiguous or unclear details. Instead of writing I have a lot of experience working in this field, write I have worked as an engineer for three and a half years. Be Conversational Written communication is different from academic or scholarly writing and it should be more conversational in nature. As a rule of thumb, write in similar fashion as talk. Read your message aloud to ensure that your writing sounds conversational. Avoid Gendered Language Avoid attaching masculine or feminine pronoun to your writing. While it is technically sound grammar to use he or his when gender is unknown or when referring to a group of people, the language may offend some people. To be on the safer side, do not use a gendered pronoun unless you are sure of the persons gender you are referencing. Avoid Passive Language Choose active verbs instead of passive verbs to add interest to your written communication. Write I drove to the beach on Sunday, instead of When I was driving to the beach on Sunday. Using active voice will also allow you to sound more conversational, as we rarely use passive voice in verbal communication. Be Personable If you know the person you are writing to, acknowledge this relationship and Instead of using blanket pronouns such as you, use the persons name. Make the information you include in your written communication pertinent to the reader. Depending on the relationship you have with the person, begin and end your writing with an appropriate greeting. Medium Selection Right medium should be chosen for written communication. Whether you use email, text messaging, or a letter depends on who you are writing to and what you are writing about. If you have never used text messaging in the work environment, it may not be the best way to correspond with a coworker. Appropriate Humor Use humor in moderation, and only when appropriate for the situation. If you are unfamiliar with the reader, avoid making jokes so as not to offend the reader. If you have a good relationship with your reader, feel free to use humor in your written communication. Even if you know the reader well, avoid offensive humor. Proof Read No matter how good at writing you may be, it is critical to proof read your written communication. Check for spelling or grammatical errors in your writing. Make sure that what you have written effectively communicates the intended message. Confusing language Confusing language means confusing words that can mislead the reader and can cause communication breakdown or barriers between the writer and the reader. Some words are ambiguous, bombastic, vague, trendy, exaggerated, inflated and archaic. It is better to use the familiar word to the far-fetched, the concrete word to the abstract, the single word to the circumlocution and the short word to long. Verbosity Verbosity means the use of too many words. The overuse of words interferes with understanding. Sometimes they are unnecessary as they interrupt the readers understanding of the message. If verbosity persists, it may confuse and bore the reader. For example: à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ Hes quick. (Ok) à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ He moves quickly. (Better) à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ Mohit was the winner! (Ok) à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ Mohit won! (Better) à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ The stability and quality of our financial performance will be developed through the profitable execution of our existing business, as well as the acquisition or development of new businesses. (Too long, too wordy, passive voice) à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¢ We will improve our financial performance not only by executing our existing business more profitably but by acquiring or developing new businesses (Better, shorter, active voice) Information Overload Information overload means giving too much information, hence, reader becomes overwhelmed and confused. This may also cause frustration and cast doubts on the writers credibility. Therefore, as a writer, you must decide what sort of information is required in order to produce a clear, concise and relevant written work. CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD BUSINESS LETTER A business letter has to be courteous and considerate. It has to be precise and clear. It has to be complete. It has to be brief. It should be neat and have good appearance CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD BUSINESS REPORT It should be accurate It should be simple It has to be precise and clear There should be consistency in writing reports Brevity and timeliness It should be neatly presented and should be carefully documented Use graphs, pie-charts, etc to show the numerical data records over years. CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD MINUTES It should be complete in all aspects such as all details should be included such as record topics discussed, decisions made, and action items. Positive language should be used rather than describing the discussion as heated or angry, use passionate, lively, or energeticall of which are just as true as the negative words. It should be clear and accurate

Dynamic Open House

Running head: Team 2: DYNAMIC OPEN HOUSE Team 2: Dynamic Open House Project Design Approach – WIN 508 Team 2: Michael Beaton John G. Bell Scott Traynor Antioch University Seattle Table of Contents Introduction3 Design Process3 Designer-Client Conversations4 Design Elements7 Room Use – Program Dividers and Breakout Rooms7 Presentation – PowerPoint and Video10 Graphics – Large Scale and Flyers13 Other design elements17 Introduction The Center for Creative Change (C3) periodically puts on an â€Å"Open House†.The Open House is a 2-hour presentation to prospective graduate students, to both answer their questions and to excite them about the opportunity that C3 provides. While the current Open House is adequate there is a sense that it is could be better. Toward this goal, the clients have engaged the design team to facilitate the development of ideas that will reinvigorate the Open House presentation. As clients, Wendy Olsen and Farouk Seif represent C 3 and Antioch. Design Team2 is comprised of John Bell, Scott Traynor and Michael Beaton.The team met twice with the Wendy Olsen and once with Farouk. The clients and the design team used collaboration and lively discussion to develop design goals, criteria and constraints. The design team used these goals, criteria and constraints to develop the following proposal. Design Process The design team worked to identify characteristics of the current Open House through conversations with the clients about the Open House, the design team’s own student experience and focus groups that had been conducted in a previous quarter.Elements of the existing Open House and of the Antioch experience were taken as examples from which specific qualities could be discerned. These specific qualities were goals, criteria and constraints that the design team explored during the design process. The design team entered the collaborative process with an experiential, ethnographic approach. Designer-Cli ent Conversations During our conversations we explored the open house as it currently is presented as a basis for inquiring into the intent and purpose of the Open House.Two overall design elements, that inform our entire project, were derived. These are information and excitement. Information The open house should provide information. The primary way this would be done is to anticipate questions and attempt to develop design elements that best supported that purpose. Another aspect of providing information that is often overlooked is to help participants develop and articulate new questions they may not have known to ask. In many cases it will not be possible to answer all the questions for each student in the 2 hours available for the Open House.It is important to provide direction on how to get answers to those questions. Excitement An important goal of the open house is to general excitement for the participants. The potential students should be excited about Antioch and the opp ortunity to enroll. Further, the faculty and staff should be excited by the chance to do something worthwhile during the open house presentation. Constraints The design team identified several constraints †¢ Time – The open house happens on a single day, in the same week as other presentations.There must be some activity for the 2 hours scheduled. Activities before and after are possible. †¢ Place – The open house happens at Antioch, in room 100. Some open house presentations use breakout rooms. †¢ Budget – There is not unlimited funds. There are funds available for ‘one time’ expenses. There are additional C3 specific funds available, as well as the budget provided by the University itself. Criteria †¢ The presentation must feature C3 as a whole as well as provide information about the specific degree and certificate programs available. Service as marketing †¢ Concise †¢ Linking / framework / themes †¢ The open ho use should give the participants an idea of what they would experience as a student. Desired Outcome From conversations with the clients, the implied purpose of the Open House is to present enough information so attendees are able to †¢ get their questions answered, or have the resources to do so. †¢ decide if Antioch is the school for them †¢ filter out those for whom Antioch would not be a good fit. †¢ â€Å"Present the C3 program for what it is† The overall event is a marketing event – this needs to be kept in mind – the desired outcome is excitement in the attendees so the right people are motivated to apply. Design Elements We developed several elements, three of which we will particularly highlight, and several which we have included in this proposal. These design elements have been used to develop a proposed agenda for a dynamic open house that creatively fulfills the requirements articulated by the client. Further iterative dialogue w ould provide the finishing touches to the proposal. Room Use – Program Dividers and Breakout RoomsIn order to address the constraint of time and the quantity of information that needs to be presented we suggest reorganizing the presentation into three separate rooms. The intent of this is to allow the â€Å"main stage† to present the most critical information while offloading other information to other rooms. This addresses the issues of presenting the most interesting and essential information, supporting the goal of maintaining audience interest, while still having all the information available and allowing us a more effective use of the time. – Break the presentation into 3 main spaces/rooms Maximize information presentation in the time frame allowed o Creating multiple places for participants to move – allowing choice in how to get information and questions answered o Offload less essential information from the main presentation to maximize the effect iveness of the time for the essential information. ? Do more with less time ? Allow for different approaches to communicating the information. I. e. not just lecture or passive participation – Main Room o Main presentation. o Incorporate wall posters – or hang from ceiling in space. ? To help bracket the room.Create a more intimate space ? Surround the screen with the program information. See Below. o Program Tables ? Arrange the tables that facilitates ease of movement around the information †¢ Allow for 3-4 staff to comfortably be in each program location. †¢ Staff the program table with a Faculty member, student, Alumni, and possibly someone representing the work community. o This supports the idea of having information and resources available to address the student at each stage. I. e. : Pre Student Life as a student Post Graduate Work. ? Add a back panel at each program desk Like a cubical divider panel. †¢ Creates a defined space for the program. C reates a different space than simply a desk. †¢ A place to present art and other information unique to the program †¢ Lighting on each panel. o Highlight the program information o To make the space more inviting than the ambient fluorescent room lighting. o Add a concierge person to handle the logistics of scheduling appointments ? Wendy indicated that sometimes she gets too involved in logistical details when she should be circulating throughout the room making sure each attendee is getting their needs met. This also supports the notion of providing attendees students with a next step while they are in the room. – Media Break Out room o Create a looping power point presentation o Possibly a looping movie. The idea being to have a place where interesting information is being presented in a multimedia forum where participants can come and go at leisure. Content of this presentation could include faculty interviews, a deeper history of the university, perhaps in depth interviews with employers and clients of Antioch graduates. – Experiential Room o Place where participants can experience Antioch as a student ?Interactive ? Sample of a class or lecture (each less than 15mintues ? Life as a Student ? Case Study Presentation ? Change Project Presentation ? Allowing for easy in and out movement. The overall idea behind these three rooms is to have a layout and relationship between the rooms that are compelling/inviting to for participants to want to visit. It should be easy to move in and out of these various rooms. This means that participants should feel comfortable entering or leaving these rooms at various intervals that allow for their participation in other activities.One way to facilitate this would be to have the looping media be short enough that there are opportunities to join or leave. Other activities in the experiential room should have structural breaks such that one would not feel rude entering or leaving at some frequent inter val. Presentation – PowerPoint and Video In the existing open house, most of the content that fills out the structure is fluid. The static content is comprised of a PowerPoint presentation and a video. Therefore, these are the point when the most consistent information is provided.Any changes to the open house must preserve this function or find another method to provide consistent information. During our meetings with the client, we identified that the PowerPoint presentation currently contains a very important element. The video interview with an employer is an element to which many participants pay close attention. Any changes to the open house must preserve this element or devise another method for developing the same combination of excitement about possibilities and information about life after graduation from an Antioch program.The team identified several overlaps in content in the PowerPoint and video. There was video in the PowerPoint, even though there was already a video component to the presentation. The PowerPoint presentation also included elements that were repeated in other parts of the overall program, such as quotes from students. Furthermore, the quotes from students in the PowerPoint are flashed on the screen and the audience is left to read them individually, which is less exciting and engaging than other opportunities for communicating with current students.The design team approached the PowerPoint presentation with special care. As a group we are especially sensitive to the way that such presentations are often misused as a primary focus instead of being an aid to the presenter. Our group’s observations of the status quo open house included points where the participants were asked to read the slides themselves, where the presenter merely read the slide aloud and where the slides did not appear to fulfill the intention of providing information and generating excitement about Antioch.Each slide was examined for intent. This in tent was then used to evaluate if the slide fulfilled the purpose it was created. The design team determined that the presentation could be both shorter and richer in content. One of the elements that we have enhanced overall in the dynamic open house proposal is the collateral information provided. Some of this will be described in the next section, but we determined that the place for information about the overall structure of C3, and the framework for the course schedule is in the PowerPoint presentation.We want to highlight the section of the presentation on which we focused the most. The design team and clients together recognized that there were a number of topics of overall C3 design that were not being communicated as well as they could be. In our meetings, we determined that very little was being said about the case study, change project and thesis. Further, the relationship between then classes was not being shown. The design team took the class schedule slides as a primar y place where re-design could help with the overall goals of the open house.We developed a new, more dynamic, way to display the 2-year program that highlights the themes of the quarters: The new design also displays links between the classes and the primary projects of the degree, such as linking RP1 to the case study and connecting the classes that are components of the 1st certificate: The video interview with an employer consistently draws the attention of the participants. In our conversation, we were able to abstract from this specific instance the need to highlight what graduates of the Center’s programs do after graduating.In the previous design element we paid particular attention to increasing the chance for participants to interact with alumni, employers and RP2 host site representatives. We further support this by including alumni at each degree table. Graphics – Large Scale and Flyers During our conversation with the client we have also identified that the re are important elements to the whole student career that are not well represented. There is a framework of relationships between the classes that is not well expressed by the current materials.These interconnections are an important element of information that can be provided, but is not currently well represented. Further, a well-developed and concise presentation of the framework for the student experience is likely to increase participant excitement for the program as a whole. In focus groups, the interdisciplinary, collaborative nature of the program is often mentioned as important for current students. Further, presenting the whole, instead of just components, in the presentation will model a primary element of the Antioch experience: Wholism.The client also stated that there have been times with participants would want to see the Power Point Presentation again for more details. This process is very time consuming and requires a staff member to focus a large amount of time to one participant. We suggest one new design and a redesign of existing visual aids. The new design would be a wall mounted poster listing the quarters and classes needed for completion for the C3 Program. This poster should be large enough to see from any where in the room.It would act as a visual aid when explaining each phase of curriculum, including the classes, case study, change project, Thesis, Certificates, Caucus, Reflective Practicum and the themes for each quarter. This would allow multiple people to view the poster at the same time and free up one staff member. Our next suggestion is to improve the flyers that we currently have and redesign them. Our team identified several improvements that were identified in conversations with our client. We would suggest the following flyers (see appendix for examples): †¢Center for Creative Change †¢Whole Systems Design Management †¢Environment and Community †¢Organizational Psychology †¢Graduate Certificates †¢History of Antioch †¢Frequently Asked Questions †¢Case Study & Change Project The C3, WSD, GMP, ENC, and OPP would all have the same information about the first year of classes including RP1, Caucus and the Core Courses. They would also list the requirements for the Case Study and the themes for each quarter. The rest of the flyer will list program specific information including sample of classes that are required. They will have information related to alumni and where you might go after completing this program.The Graduate Certificate Flyer will have information related to these programs, including alumni and what benefits you might gain by having these certificates Our client specifically talked about the lack of information they have about the history of Antioch. The history is rich and very worthy to share with the participants. This flyer should address that information the client would like to share. While each program could include an FAQ tailored to fit thei r flyer, we feel that there are common questions being asked across the programs. This flyer should address those FAQ as well as information about the school.This flyer should/could go hand in hand with the C3 flyer. Information tailored to fit the entire C3 program. One of the main topics not discussed in detail is the Case Study and Change Project. In our conversations with the client, we also determined that little emphasis is placed on the case study and the change project during the entire open house. These are important elements of information, and likely to be the catalyst for excitement from the participants about the program as a whole. in focus groups, the practical component is one element than many current students cite as important in their decision to attend the university.Proposed Agenda An agenda for the evening should be prominently posted. This provides context for the experience and also will help to simulate the experience of the participants as Antioch students. The design team has combined the design elements into a program for the evening. Other design elements Playing with the constraints of time and place, this design team was able to develop several ideas that met the criteria of the open house in other formats. Antioch TV One way to generate excitement about Antioch and to develop a conduit for information about what Antioch is like for students would be to develop alternate delivery methods.For example, some Universities provide lectures via local cable or as videos that can be ordered. Presenting this first as a service to the community provides marketing as a benefit. Alternate Weekend Classes for the Community Highlighting the notion that service to the community is marketing, the design team developed the notion that C3 could offer 1-credit classes to the community on a weekend that alternated from residencies. This would provide many of the experiential, interactive elements to familiarize participants with what it is to be an Antioch student as well as performing an intrinsically good service for the community.C3 might find that this alternate weekend becomes an important part of emergent services to itself. One option would be to provide experiential labs that were optional components for students able to enroll without requiring out of town students to be on campus outside of residency weekends. This could become a bridge between providing low-residency programs and more intensely engaging programs for those willing and able. Another related notion is to provide lectures before the open house, which are part of the overall program, but not absolutely linked.After developing this notion, the design team was informed by the clients that this had been done on at least one occasion in the past. Other graphics and Packet information In order to give the prospective student better idea of what Antioch is about we propose that the information that is available include: ? FAQ Sheet o A page or two that has ess ential information, phone numbers, perhaps dates and times, along with recurring questions that arise in these sessions and in even in private meetings with advisors. Class Syllabus o To give the prospective student an idea of what the classes are about. They do not have to be the most current. o Maybe have them at each program table. ? Case Study and Change Projects o Illustrating some of the work that students actually do. o Invite students to practice or repeat symposium presentations ? â€Å"Life after Antioch† o i. e. , job placement study, salary surveys, employer testimonials, student/alum testimonials† o see below Alumni AssociationWendy indicated that there is a new position at Antioch specifically tasked to establish relationships with Antioch Alumni. We believe alumni participation in the Open House is critical to the success of the evening. As noted above we propose to integrate alum into the teams that staff the program tables. Additionally it would be usef ul for Antioch to institute a survey that would garner information about what Antioch graduates do after getting their degree. Wendy indicated more than once that the section where the employer talks in the current video is where attendees really ‘perk up’.We think this ‘post-degree’ information should be a focus of the information presented. Specific information that will be useful would be the job sectors graduates move into, perhaps a list of companies that have historically hired graduates, along with some salary survey information. Post Meeting Review Regarding the notion of having materials and the information available to fully address the participants needs it may be useful to have a post meeting debrief session. A review of things that worked, perhaps didn’t work and ways to make adjustments for future presentations.One thing we hope would come out in these meetings to get a sense of the type of people that are coming to these sessions and t he type of questions are being asked. Paying attention to these elements will help keep the system at Antioch open to its potential base of students as well as providing feedback to make the Open House sessions better. Recurring questions or things that the staff find are confusing participants could be addressed in future updates to the FAQ sheet. Where appropriate the information could be added to the Antioch web site as well.

Franz Kafka as a Hunger Artist - 2806 Words

Through much of Franz Kafka’s writing, the reader can see how his personal experiences and viewpoints are clearly worked into his many stories. One of which stands out is his story A Hunger Artist. In this story Kafka speaks through the hunger artist of the alienation and isolation he feels in his own body, as well as the emptiness he feels as a result of the disconnected relationship he and his father share. Ironically this emptiness manifests itself quite literally at the end of Kafka’s life, when he dies as a result of tuberculosis of the larynx, which causes him to literally starve to death, just as the hunger artist in the story. It was said about his writing â€Å"the early manifestations of authentic originality were nurtured in solitary†¦show more content†¦Like the hunger artist, he too lived in a state of constant want for both food and recognition, as he longed for his father’s acceptance. From the very beginning of Kaka’s life, his fa mily had been organized by, around, and for the benefit of his overbearing father. As a result of his father’s constant criticisms, Kafka began to criticize himself, as he felt crushed by his ever present burden of guilt, which he turned into self-hatred. â€Å"One of the most significant influences on Kafka’s life and work was his domineering father. Kafka’s stories often contain themes drawn from the burden of his father’s tyranny in his home life, depicting settings of confinement as well as convoluted systems of punishment and other expressions of seemingly all powerful authority.† (Miline 100) He blames his father for having robbed him of his childhood, never giving him the attention he is starving for, and like the hunger artist, he spends his whole life seeking it. The most sustained account of Kafka’s childhood is seen by Kafka himself, contained in the fifty-pageShow MoreRelatedFranz Kafka s A Hunger Artist And The Metamorphosis1155 Words   |  5 Pageswhole life and leaving this world as a nobody.
