Abstract

The proposal of this text is to explain the nature of the relationship between philosophy and literature in chapter 1 Kafka: by a minor literature (1975), entitled “Content and Expression”, authored by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. To that end, we postulate that philosophy and literature are related by means of a movement that exposes the exercise of a philosophy of desire. The exercise of a philosophy of desire advocates that it is both a process and a procedure.
