More From Franz Kafka

I'm so old that when i started keeping a diary they were in actual books, and i think that's one the reasons that i've never written about sex. because early on you had to worry that someone was going to find your diary, so it's bad enough to be writing like joan didion, but writing like joan didion about sex acts you'd performed with somebody you had known for 20 minutes, that's a bit worse. so i would write in my diary, "i met j. and we had sex five times last night." but i would never write about what we did.

What we experience in various and specific milieux, i have noted, is often caused by structural changes. accordingly, to understand the changes of many personal milieux we are required to look beyond them. and the number and variety of such structural changes increase as the institutions within which we live become more embracing and more intricately connected with one another. to be aware of the idea of social structure and to use it with sensibility is to be capable of tracing such linkages among a great variety of milieux. to be able to do that is to possess the sociological imagination
