L’intérêt romanesque et les aventures poétiques de Jacques le fataliste
Pour Jan Herman, l’autoréflexivité dans Jacques le fataliste se traduit par trois aventures poétiques intimement liées. Tout d’abord, le récit de Diderot met en évidence le difficile équilibre entre l’arbitraire d’une liberté sans limites que possède le romancier et la nécessité de respecter les contraintes du code légué par la tradition.
