Реферат: Metamorphosis Essay Research Paper Metamorphosis ResponseGregor had

not change drastically. His loss of relation with his family was

nothing very new, there was a lacking of personal connection with

his parents for quite awhile before hand. His parents treated him

as a form of hired help since he had taken the job to pay for his

father’s debts. Grete, Gregor’s sister, seemed to be the only

family member to change her perception of Gregor. She went from

being the overemotional, little seventeen-year-old girl to a

bitter, matured stranger_the first in the Samsa household to

declare that Gregor needed to be exterminated.

Gregor did not seemed shocked that his family wanted to kill him

off either, almost as if he had been expecting it. He was only

upset because he had scared his sister. It was as though Gregor

had removed himself completely from his self, bordering on

indifference. Self-alienation was the word commonly used to

describe Gregor’s state in the end. Although this self-alienation

came strongest in the end of his life, it had been occurring from

the moment Gregor accepted his life at the office. Alienation

coming from his family had been occurring from the moment as well.

Could anything have been done to stop either?

Pessimistically speaking, no. Gregor accepted the office thinking

that it would later lead to a happier and more self-fulfilling

future. Most people do this in everyday life. We do one thing

after another, building stepping stones that we will rarely

achieve only because we will never be satisfied with what we have

in the end and force ourselves to keep going. This is the way of a

vast portion of the world’s population. Lack of satisfaction is

what keeps us going. Should we ever achieve full satisfaction, we

will have no purpose.
