To Meet the Maker: the Influence of the Author in the Critical Reception
To Meet the Maker: The Influence of the Author in the Critical Reception of David Foster Wallace David Lipsky. Although of Course You End Up Becoming Yourself: A Road Trip With David Foster Wallace . New York: Broadway Books, 2010. ISBN 978-0-307-59243-9 Nick Levey Criticism often benefits from an author’s silence. This “absence” sustains a forever flimsy ontology, suggests a service in need of provision, and ulti- mately helps to hide that “final signified” which so tyrannically restricts Ro- land Barthes’ anarchic reader. 1 Alongside the “obscurity” of language, the author’s “ob-scenity” is partly the non-act on which criticism depends, creat- ing and ensuring the space into which its discourse comes. Of course there are degrees of silence. There are those authors who write essays, who write autobiographies, who seem determined to be their texts’ first and final instance;2 and there are those who are reclusive to the extreme, such as Thomas Pynchon, or those from whom we have no voice to hear, such as Shakespeare. But what happens when an author “speaks,” and just as loudly as those texts he writes? We today still tend to hesitate to hear it, partly because that word “influence” has been most feared in recent years, partly because we are still a bit deterred by French theory. But while the author may be, in our humanist “cowardice,” the “ideological figure by which one marks the manner in which we fear the proliferation of meaning,” her imposition being the appeasing anthropomorphisation of the otherwise “arbitrary” sign, 3 she’s also just as equally the figure by which we recognize COLLOQUY text theory critique 21 (2011). -

Derivative Sport: The Journalistic Legacy of David Foster Wallace Josh Roiland University of Maine, United States Abstract: The late writer David Foster Wallace is best known as the au- thor of the 1,079-page novel Infinite Jest. But he also produced some of the most well known pieces of magazine journalism throughout the 1990s and 2000s. He was a three-time finalist for the National Magazine Award, winning once in 2001 for his Rolling Stone profile of Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign, “The Weasel, Twelve Monkeys, and the Shrub.” Be- cause of his distinct voice, ability to blend high and low culture, and inno- vative use of footnotes, Wallace cast a long shadow of influence on a genera- David Foster Wallace giving a reading at All Saints Church, San Francisco, 2006. tion of literary journalists.

I’ve compiled those interviews into a kind of roundtable-style discussion that tells the story of Wallace and his contributions to literary journalism in the United States.
