The language theory of Mikhail Bakhtin does not fall neatly under
any single rubric - 'dialogism,' 'marxism,' 'prosaics,'
'authorship' - because the philosophic foundation of his writing
rests ambivalently between phenomenology and Marxism. The
theoretical tension of these positions creates philosophical
impasses in Bakhtin's work, which have been neglected or ignored
partly because these impasses are themselves mirrored by the
problems of antifoundationalist and materialist tendencies in
literary scholarship. In Mikhail Bakhtin: Between Phenomenology and
Marxism Michael Bernard-Donals examines various incarnations of
phenomenological and materialist theory - including the work of
Jauss, Fish, Rorty, Althusser, and Pecheux - and places them beside
Bakhtin's work, providing a contextualised study of Bakhtin, a
critique of the problems of contemporary critics, and an original
contribution to literary theory.
