Contrary to previous studies of Tillie Olsen's writing, Tillie
Olsen and the Dialectical Philosophy of Proletarian Literature
analyzes the impact of one of the most important philosophies of
the last century, dialectical materialism, on the form and content
of Olsen's fiction. By revealing the unconceptualized dialectics of
Olsen's work and its appreciation by scholars and casual readers,
this study achieves a dialectical synthesis that incorporates and
extends the insights of and about Olsen in terms of dialectical
materialism. By foregrounding Olsen's dialectical approach, it
explains and largely resolves apparent contradictions between her
Marxism and feminism; her depictions of class, race, and gender;
the literature of her earlier and later periods; and her use of
realist and modernist literary forms and techniques. Consequently,
this project makes a case for the importance of Olsen's Marxist
education during the "Red Decade" of the 1930s and within the U.S.
proletarian literary movement.
