{"product_id":"marxism-and-literature","title":"Marxism and Literature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book extends the theme of Raymond Williams's earlier work in literary and cultural analysis. He analyses previous contributions to a Marxist theory of literature from Marx himself to Lukacs, Althusser, and Goldmann, and develops his own approach by outlining a theory of `cultural materialism' which integrates Marxist theories of language with Marxist theories of literature.   Williams moves from a review of the growth of the concepts of\n\u003cbr\u003eliterature and idealogy to a redefinition of `determinism' and `hegemony'.  His incisive discussion of the 'social material process' of cultural activity culminates in a re-examination of the problems of\n\u003cbr\u003ealignment and commitment and of the creative practice in individual authors and wider social groups.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46058509828334,"sku":"9780198760610","price":94.25,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198760610.jpg?v=1736477246","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/marxism-and-literature","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
