Write a 9 page essay on A Country Doctor by Franz Kafka.
The story depicts a doctor who, indifferent to his environment and profession, lived in some rural area. The indifferent attitude of the doctor was described elaborately by defining conditions of weather, house, horses and many other situations plotted by the author. Doctor was not only indifferent towards his profession, family and the horses but also inhuman caring little about the pain and sufferings of others. The doctor had little knowledge of curing diseases and had never cared for his patients, servants or others. He was exploited by a groom and a family that rang the false alarm to call him at the family’s house. He was engulfed in situation and circumstances which he could have easily handled through his knowledge, skills and humanity. However, he abandoned to the circumstances due to his inability and lack of knowledge. The situation created by his betrayal ultimately ended his life in misery and sufferings. The story begins with the description of a cold and icy night in which a doctor in the countryside was eager to travel to a house some ten miles away for visiting the patient. The eagerness of doctor was described with the sentence such as: “An urgent journey was facing me” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5). The cold and icy weather was described using sentence such as: “A severe snowstorm filled the space between him and me” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5). The indifferent and reckless attitude of doctor was described with various incidents, situations and events....
was described by the sentence such as: “My own horse had died the previous night, as a result of overexertion in this icy winter” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5). The doctor’s indifferent attitude towards the cold weather was described by his eagerness and constantly standing in snowfall searching for the horse that can carry his wagon. This was described using sentence such as: “increasingly covered with snow, becoming all the time more immobile” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5). The night time was depicted by description of actions such as lantern swinging and swaying used in the sentences such as: “She was swinging the lantern” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5) and “A dim stall lantern on a rope swayed inside” (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5). The doctor was short tempered. He pretended to be an efficient and caring doctor by showing his rush for reaching the patient. At the heart he knew he loved his position of job merely for the revenue and he cared little about the patient or his servants. This quality of doctor was revealed by describing his rage and anger upon failure to borrow the horse from neighborhood. The rage was depicted by describing an event in which doctor kicked the broken door of the unused filthy abode of pig. This event was depicted as: Distracted and tormented, I kicked my foot against the cracked door of the pig sty which had not been used for years. The door opened and banged to and fro on its hinges (Kafka 1919, pp. 1-5) The doctor was depicted as inhuman by developing a situation in which doctor borrowed the horse and in return left his girl servant in the hands of a brutal groom. The brutality of the groom was described as: But as soon as she was beside him, the groom puts his arms around her and pushes his face against hers. She screams out and runs over to me.
