Around the year 1900,in the context of modernization in Europe and an atmosphere of apocalypse,the oriental culture,represented by China,once again attracted attention from European intellectuals,including Kafka.However,there is a big gap between Kafka’s narrative about China in letters/diaries and the image of China presented in his literary works.Foucault’s elaboration on the two concepts Utopia and Heterotopia provides new possibility to interpret images of China presented by Kafka.On the one hand,China embodies enchanting fantasy,hence assuming a utopian nature.And on the other hand,China was constructed into a space out of order,reflecting a modern society where order only exists in vacuum and truth is blurred,and a society where people live in fear and haziness.
