Abstract:
Literature has always been a platform for exploring human identity and existential issues. This study, employing a comparative approach, examines the similarities and differences between Franz Kafka's *The Metamorphosis* and Aldous Huxley's *Brave New World*. The research analyzes the methods of representing the existential challenges of modern humanity and examines the narrative and conceptual elements influencing these works. Furthermore, the social and philosophical themes within these texts are analyzed, highlighting the shared focus of the authors on social concerns and the impacts of modernism. The findings reveal that the authors, through character development and symbolic narratives, depict the transformation of internal bureaucracies into totalitarian systems, which are the products of global modernism. In addition to focusing on alienation, social isolation, and the influence of technology, these works provide a foundation for better understanding and mitigating the existential challenges faced by modern humans. The application of a comparative approach in this analysis enables a deeper examination of philosophical and social themes and enhances the understanding of modernism's effects on human identity.
