Abstract

This article intends to present some of the ideas in the first books of the British essayist and literary critic Terry Eagleton. The contribution of his ideas in the analysis of the relation between literature and history serves as a parameter for the discussion of important works in the field of recent materialistic literary criticism, such as Marxism and literary criticism (1976) and Walter Benjamin, or towards a revolutionary criticism (1981).
