My thesis explores the problematics of Romantic representation from the perspective of the German notions of Vorstellung (inner vision, transcendent interpretation) and Darstellung (visual and/or verbal representation). I develop the paradigm of complementarity that underlies the relationship of Vorstellung and Darstellung, and that designates the simultaneous existence of contradictory perspectives on representation. I analyze the theory of representation in Schiller's essays, Novalis's Fichte-Studies and Fragments 1799-1800, Friedrich Schlegel's Dialogue on Poetry and Fragments, Kleist's "On the Marionettentheater," Hegel's Philosophy of Fine Art, August Bernhardi's Grammar, and Nietzsche's The Birth of Tragedy. I also examine the formation of generic hybrids in the theoretical discourses of these authors. I suggest that the hybrids lyric/narrative, lyric/drama, and drama/narrative evolve from the Romantic process of becoming that underlies Novalis's and Schlegel's conceptions of genre. I analyze the practical implications of all the theoretical premises in Holderlin's novel Hyperion, Keats's Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion, Novalis's Heinrich von Ofterdingen, and Shelley's The Revolt of Islam. In the works of Holderlin, Novalis and Shelley, I focus on the representations and transcendent interpretations of the ruins of history, as well as on the ideals of nature and the feminine. I emphasize the importance of scenes of reading and staged scenes of reading in Holderlin, Keats, and Shelley, as well as the texts' self-mirroring and self-reflection. I also focus on nature as a text in Holderlin's and Novalis's novels, and in Shelley's The Revolt of Islam. The epistolary form of Holderlin's novel foregrounds the acts of inner vision and transcendent interpretation, and questions Hyperion's failure in the real world. The intertextual relationship of Keats's two Hyperion poems reveals the disintegration of the sculpturesque mode of representation and the emergence of immaterial visions. Novalis's novel reveals an internal textual fragmentation due to the formation of in-texts within the text. The intertextuality of the poems embedded in the narrative and of their interpretations develops out of the novel's interrelated modes of textual representation.
