, Théorie de la littérature du romantisme allemand (1978), doubtless the most influential and incisive account of Romanticism's historical connection with the Kantian "crisis, 1984.
, Whence the need, in the novelist's quest to identify that faculty, for speculation, for the mirroring of presentation, of mimèsis, as the only means of overcoming the inevitable delay of the "author" with respect to himself, that delay which is evident on nearly every page of The Body Artist. What comes impossibly then into view, in the guise, as we saw, of an impaired speech faculty, is a voice which speaks, not belatedly as we do of a Fall, but of a coming into being, not nostalgically of the loss of permanence, but of an emergence into time and the mutable state of existence. For Mr. Tuttle, who on occasion discovers in himself a certain capacity for rhyming -which is a way, of course, of differentiating by means of repetition -, has moments of "inspiration, Let me now finish by quoting a frequently cited passage of the novel that testifies to the essential mutability of that semblance. Imagination, as a precognitive faculty of puttinginto-figure, is not constituted by man but constitutes him as such

, Noëlle Batt, at the farthest remove possible from such an ontological interpretation of voice, reads it as the "biologically determined" speech of an autist "creatively exploited" by DeLillo (73); such a literal interpretation necessarily falls short, as Osteen's does for apparently opposite reasons, Despite what Philip Nel seems to suggest. Nor, on the other hand, does it appear reducible to a "heap of obscure, impenetrable, merely juxtaposed fragments
