Marxism and Literature
• first published in 1977 by Oxford University Press • Written at a time of widespread challenges against
both the literary and social establishments • Written during a period when Marxist ideas suffered a lot of
capitalism, and so Marxism must now revisit its literary theories. It’s no longer, for example, so much about the inherent act of writing itself, but how the writing is received and reviewed.
Although words may have a cluster of supposed meanings, the meaning of words are changeable: they are not static or inherent. For this reason, Williams believes Marxism must consider language alongside culture.

He also discusses what he believes to be a glaring problem with literary theory and how it’s divisive. To solve all these problems, Williams proposes a new theory— cultural materialism.

② As an accessible segment of reality could be studied as grammar
③ Within the distinction between language and reality could be conceived as an instrument and could be studied in rhetoric and poetics

Essentially, we’re living in a world where cultural enlightenment is the goal, and so anything which doesn’t contribute to this economically is not valuable.
Williams is concerned that traditional Marxism doesn’t go far enough to challenge the bourgeois cultural ideal, and for this reason Marxism fails.

Williams explains that the whole definition of “culture” is undergoing a paradigm shift, so it’s vital to go back to its most basic definition to see where the problems lie.
