The Oxford Kafka Research Centre is pleased to announce its 2026 Kafka Undergraduate Essay Prize. This year’s competition invites undergraduate essays that explore bodies, broadly defined, in Kafka’s writings and in the cultural and medical worlds that surround them. 
Entrants must currently be enrolled in a course of German (single honours or with another subject) at a university in the UK. Please submit your essay as a PDF by Monday 6 April 2026, 12:00 noon to: kafka@mod-langs.ox.ac.uk
