Frank O'Hara - Poet (1926-1966) Want to pack more punch than a metaphor provides? Consider hypocatastasis. Metaphors and similes are figures of speech used to add flair and/or humor to a phrase. These popular rhetorical devices are all well and good, but sometimes you just need to get to the point; enter hypocatastasis. Hypo is derived from the Greek “under,” cata comes from the Ancient Greek kata, meaning “down from, or down to,’ and stasis is Greek for “standing still.” Linguistically, both a hypocatastasis and a metaphor imply a resemblance, representation or comparison. However, hypocatastasis packs more of a punch than a metaphor because the former uses only one noun, (the other noun is implied), while the latter uses two nouns. For example, “You are a rockstar!” Is a metaphorical phrase because two nouns are present – “you” and “rockstar.” Hypocatastasis is common in the Bible. Help us think of other examples of this useful and infrequent figure of speech, both in classic literature and popular culture.

Revista Capital. Franz Kafka. Kafka was born into a middle-class, German-speaking Jewish family in Prague, the capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In his lifetime, most of the population of Prague spoke Czech, and the division between Czech- and German-speaking people was a tangible reality, as both groups were strengthening their national identity.
The Jewish community often found itself in between the two sentiments, naturally raising questions about a place to which one belongs. Kafka himself was fluent in both languages, considering German his mother tongue. Kafka trained as a lawyer and after completing his legal education, obtained employment with an insurance company.
