Marxism and Literary Criticism
by [Eagleton, Terry]
$28.80
Description
Marxist literary criticism is becoming increasingly important in Europe as a whole, and interest in the subject is rapidly growing in this country. In this book, Dr. Eagleton analyses the major issues that the subject presents, discussing the writing of Marx and Engles themselves and the work of such critics as Plekhanov, Trotsky, Lenin, Lukacs, Goldmann, Caudwell, Benjamin and Crecht. They are seen from four viewpoints central to Marxist thought: the realation of literature to history, the problem of 'form' and 'content' in literature, the questions of literature and political commitment, and the importance of production and technology in art. Dr. Eagleton's exploration of these critical stances throws useful light on the connection between the Marxist approach and structuralism.
