Jacobs (literature, State U. of New York at Buffalo) attempts to come to terms with the question of how one reads an author such as Benjamin who tells us that writing does not communicate very much to the reader. She presents such guidelines for criticism as Benjamin seems to offer in The Origin of German Tragic Drama , reminding us of his distinction between truth and knowledge. Insisting that his method of philosophical contemplation is a performance demanding precise immersion in minute details, she discusses key works such as Berlin Chronicle , the apparently biographical study of Proust, "Myslowitz Braunschweig Marseille," and the essays on the theory of language.
