In the first introduction to Marxist literary criticism in decades, Barbara Foley argues that Marxism continues to offer the best framework for exploring the relationship between literature and society. She lays out in clear terms the principal aspects of Marxist methodology--historical materialism, political economy, and ideology critique--as well as key debates about the nature of literature and the goals of literary criticism and pedagogy. Examining a wide range of texts through the empowering lens of Marxism--from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to E. L. James's Fifty Shades of Grey, from Frederick Douglass's 'What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?' to Annie Proulx's 'Brokeback Mountain'--Foley provides a clear and compelling textbook of Marxist literary criticism.

Is Marx relevant any more? Why should we care what he wrote? What difference could it make to our reading of literature? Terry Eagleton, one of the foremost critics of our generation, has some answers in this wonderfully clear and readable analysis. Sharp and concise, it is, without doubt, the most important work on literary criticism that has emerged out of the tradition of Marxist philosophy and social theory since the nineteenth century. For this Routledge Classics edition the author has written a startling and challenging new introduction which explains the continuing relevance of this pioneering work for the twenty-first century. For anyone interested in literature this book is essential reading.

This volume constitutes both an attack on modern left wing literary theory - the main product of the last Marxist renaissance in the past thirty years - and a defence of the one element of Marxism which, in the general collapse, modern theorists have been happiest to lose, its economic materialism. It traces Marxist theory from its beginnings in Hegelian idealism to its end in Althusser's structuralism, and concludes that while Marxist economics will not work, and the type of revolution prophesied was fantasy, the principle of historical materialism remains intact and defensible. This will be a key text in literary and cultural studies as well as being of interest to students on philosophy and sociology courses.

This works deals to a large extent with Marxist criticism. Marxism's impact on the organization of the international labor movement its impact on world history the Russian, the Chinese and Cuban revolutions Marxism's influence on the social sciences mainly sociology, historiography and economics Marxism's indirect influence on philosophy, linguistics and anthropology this all makes it evident that Marxism deserves careful consideration in the study of literary theory. In the first chapter of Part 3, an overview of Marx's and Engels' ideas about literature are given, while contrasting their ideas with Lenin's and Trotsky's ideas. In the second chapter of Part 3, the writer draws up three Marxist theses for literary theory. He also develops three Marxist criteria to distinguish classes because 'class' and 'class struggle' are central concepts of Marxist Theory though the writer acknowledges these concepts lesser usefulness for literary theory. The faulty theories of present-day Marxist critics are covered as well. Finally, the Marxist theses for literary theory are applied in analyzing Dazai's novel The Setting Sun.

Literature is often defined as a distinct category of writing in terms of particular formal or aesthetic attributes. Tony Bennett suggests that literature be re-defined as an institutionally defined field of textual uses and effects. Charting a course between literary aesthetics and their associated politics, Bennett engages critically with the central concerns of Marxist theoreticians such as Georg Lukacs, Fredric Jameson, Terry Eagleton and Frank Lentricchia. Outside Literature also includes a critique of post-structuralist and postmodernist methodologies which, Bennett suggests, are incapable of supporting anything more than a purely rhetorical politics. Drawing on the work of Foucault, Bennett asserts the need for a more definite enquiry into the institutional regulation of culture, in order that questions of literary and cultural politics be detached from the eviscerating generalities of literary and cultural criticism.

"In this study Moyra Haslett argues that marxist literary and cultural theories are more diverse than is conventionally thought, drawing upon the work of a wide range of marxist thinkers. She discusses the works of those who sought to theorize the relationships between literature and culture and between culture and ideology, including Volosinov, Lukacs, Jameson, and Fagleton. The second section of the book looks at marxist readings of three very different topics: the work of the eighteenth-century poet Mary Leapor, Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the film versions of Jane Austen's novels made in the 1990s. Haslett ably demonstrates that marxist readings have continuing relevance and great creative potential."--Jacket

The Communist Party's attitude toward art in this period was, in general, epiphenomenal of its economic policy. A resolution of 1925 voiced the party's refusal to sanction anyone's literary faction. This reflected the New Economic Policy (NEP) of a limited free-market economy. The period of the First Five-Year Plan (1928-1932) saw a more or less voluntary return to a more committed artistic posture, and during the second Five-Year Plan (1932-1936), this commitment was crystallized in the formation of a Writers' Union. The first congress of this union in 1934, featuring speeches by Maxim Gorky and Bukharin, officially adopted socialist realism, as defined primarily by Andrei Zhdanov (1896-1948). Aptly dubbed by Terry Eagleton as "Stalin's cultural thug," it was Zhdanov whose proscriptive shadow thenceforward fell over Soviet cultural affairs. Although Nikolai Bukharin's speech at the congress had attempted a synthesis of Formalist and sociological attitudes, premised on his assertion that within "the microcosm of the word is embedded the macrocosm of history," Bukharin was eventually to fall from his position as the leading theoretician of the party: his trial and execution, stemming from his political and economic differences with Stalin, were also symptomatic of the fact that Formalism soon became a sin once more. Bukharin had called for socialist realism to portray not reality "as it is" but rather as it exists in socialist imagination.
