Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on Fredric Jameson's significant contributions to Marxist critique, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of his work from the 1950s to today. Steven Helmling explores major themes in Jameson's writings, emphasizing his unique "dialectical prose," which challenges traditional critique by performing the contradictions it examines. By addressing the complexities of Jameson's style rather than avoiding them, Helmling sheds light on the relationship between writing and critical success, contributing meaningfully to contemporary discussions about theoretical frameworks.
