Jakob Von Gunten es una novela del escritor suizo Robert Walser, publicada originalmente en alemán en 1909. La historia sigue a Jakob von Gunten, un joven que decide ingresar en el Instituto Benjamenta, una peculiar escuela para sirvientes. A través de su diario, Jakob describe su vida en la escuela, sus compañeros y las enseñanzas poco convencionales que recibe. La novela explora temas como la identidad, la autoridad y la búsqueda de sentido en un mundo absurdo.

Robert Walser was a German language Swiss writer. He additionally worked as a copyist, an inventor's assistant, a butler, and in various other low-paying trades. Despite marginal early success in his literary career, the popularity of his work gradually diminished over the second and third decades of the 20th century, making it increasingly difficult for him to support himself through writing. He eventually had a nervous breakdown and spent the remainder of his life in sanatoria.
