This book contains Christopher Caudwell’s 1937 treatise, 'Illusion and Reality'. It is a work of Marxist literary criticism that develops the idea that each individual era of British poetry stems from a novel economical paradigm in bourgeois society. Christopher St John Sprigg (1907-1937), more commonly known by his pseudonym ’Christopher Caudwell’, was a British Marxist poet and thinker. In early life, he made his way to Marxism and set about rethinking everything in light of it, from poetry to philosophy to physics, and became a staunch member of the ’Communist Party of Great Britain’. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Tanto la insistencia en conceptos de privación, diferencia y ausencia que caracterizan ciertos debates filosóficos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, así como las figuras herméticas privilegiadas desde la lírica del simbolismo y las vanguardias imponen una ruptura de la mirada habitual y ve...
