  • Hope Without Optimism

    Terry EagletonBOOKHope Without Optimism2019

    In "Hope Without Optimism," Terry Eagleton dissects the pervasive yet often misunderstood concept of hope. He argues that hope, distinct from optimism, isn't simply a naive expectation of positive outcomes. Instead, it's a principled commitment to a better future, even in the face of overwhelming odds. Eagleton explores hope's complex relationship with tragedy, justice, and revolution, drawing on a wide range of sources from ancient Greek philoso…

  • Why Marx Was Right

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonBOOKWhy Marx Was Right2017

    In this combative, controversial book, Terry Eagleton takes issue with the prejudice that Marxism is dead and done with. Taking ten of the most common objections to Marxism—that it leads to political tyranny, that it reduces everything to the economic, that it is a form of historical determinism, and so on—he demonstrates in each case what a woeful travesty of Marx's own thought these assumptions are. In a world in which capitalism has been shake…

  • Culture and the Death of God

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonBOOKCulture and the Death of God2017

    How to live in a supposedly faithless world threatened by religious fundamentalism? Terry Eagleton, formidable thinker and renowned cultural critic, investigates in this thought-provoking book the contradictions, difficulties, and significance of the modern search for a replacement for God. Engaging with a phenomenally wide range of ideas, issues, and thinkers from the Enlightenment to today, Eagleton discusses the state of religion before and af…

  • Reason, Faith, and Revolution

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonBOOKReason, Faith, and Revolution2017

    Terry Eagleton’s witty and polemical Reason, Faith, and Revolution is bound to cause a stir among scientists, theologians, people of faith and people of no faith, as well as general readers eager to understand the God Debate. On the one hand, Eagleton demolishes what he calls the “superstitious” view of God held by most atheists and agnostics and offers in its place a revolutionary account of the Christian Gospel. On the other hand, he launches a…

  • The Event of Literature

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonBOOKEvent of Literature2017

    In this characteristically concise, witty, and lucid book, Terry Eagleton turns his attention to the questions we should ask about literature, but rarely do. What is literature? Can we even speak of "literature" at all? What do different literary theories tell us about what texts mean and do? In throwing new light on these and other questions he has raised in previous best-sellers, Eagleton offers a new theory of what we mean by literature. He al…

  • Utopias, Past and Present

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonARTICLEUtopian Studies2016Citada por: 1

    Thomas More's Utopia, a book that will be 500 years old next year, is astonishingly radical stuff. Not many lord chancellors of England have denounced private property, advocated a form of communism and described the current social order as a “conspiracy of the rich.” Such men, the book announces, are “greedy, unscrupulous and useless.” There are a great number of noblemen, More complains, who live like drones on the labour of others. Tenants are…

    Bodies, Artworks, and Use Values Terry Eagleton (bio) People Like to Feel Useful but not to feel used, a distinction which captures something of our general ambiguity about the concept of use. Not to feel used may be to feel dumped and discarded, which is objectionable; but it may also be to feel treated as an end in oneself, which is not. Perhaps what counts is the difference between being put to use by others and being the agent of one’s own pr…

  • The Death of Rhetoric

    Open AccessTerry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonARTICLEAcademic Questions2012

    Poetry is about the experience of meaning as well as the meaning of experience. To read a poem is to feel one’s way into the inner workings of its language, rather than to peer through that speech to an extractable truth. It is to treat words as constitutive of meaning, not simply as reflective of it. This, to be sure, is true of all verbal acts, even the most banal, but poetry is the place where the performative, rhetorical dimensions of speech …

  • Jameson and Form

    Terry Eagleton, Terry Francis EagletonARTICLENew left review2009

    Identifying Fredric Jameson’s literary style as one of his signal achievements, Eagleton asks whether his formal emphases also serve to stave off questions of content: morality, sexuality, subjectivity
