Summary/Abstract: Franc Kafka is one of those authors that have endowed an incomparable inheritance in the context of world literature. His novel “The Process” is one of the most debatable and this discussion on the novel has continued to this day amongst art and literature personalities, but has also expanded onto other fields. The connection between the fictional time to the historical one, but also the expansion beyond the historic perspective is one of the aspects of interest to this article. The problem of space can also be discussed from the same perspective. Although a specific time and space pertaining to reality is alluded to in the text, nevertheless this fact is hidden in the novel which provides an impression that this historic time and space might not exist and might be ahistoric. Elements and situations of the absurd in the novel form a very important element in this article. Duly noted in “The Process”, such situations are then reflected upon while considering Kafka’s oeuvre. Starting from elements of the absurd, certain conclusions will arise about the interpretation of the work and its reception in different times and spaces.
