Destined freedom and free fatality--A comparative study between Sartre's concept of freedom and Kafka's

A kind of fatalistic flavor was sent forth from both Sartre's concept of freedom and Kafka's.Kafka noticed the absoluteness of human freedom from man's choice,while Sartre stressed that man's freedom meant he was free to choose.With regard to the real situation of people,Sartre pointed out that freedom of human being was actually embodied in his actively intervening in real life and his responsibility of choice,but Kafka put forward a new idea of "freedom being fetters" based on his view of original sin.The difference of the two authors' concept originated from the different thought resources of the two cultural traditions.
