Frederic Jameson is widely regarded as one of the most original and
influential Marxist critics of the last decades. His most
controversial work, The Political Unconscious, had an enormous
impact on literary criticism and cultural studies. In Jameson,
Althusser, Marx, first published in 1984, Professor Dowling sets
out to provide the intellectual background needed for an
understanding of Jameson's argument and its broader implications.
He elucidates the unspoken assumptions that are the foundation of
Jameson's thought - assumptions about how the nature of language,
of interpretation and of culture - and shows how Jameson attempts
to subsume in an expanded Marxism the critical theories of Derrida,
Foucault, Deleuze, Lacan and of structuralism and poststructuralism
in general. This lively, concise book will be welcomed by anyone
interested in current theoretical debates, in Marxist criticism,
and in the wide-ranging implications of Marxist cultural theory for
the social sciences, the arts and the study of history.
