What is Marxism?
Marxism
What is Marxism?
Marxism is a social, political, and economic
philosophy named after the 19th-century
German philosopher and economist Karl Marx.
His work examines the historical effects of
capitalism on labor, productivity, and economic
development, and argues that a worker
revolution is needed to replace capitalism with a
communist system.
Marxism posits that the struggle between social
classes—specifically between the bourgeoisie, or
capitalists, and the proletariat, or workers—
defines economic relations in a capitalist
economy and will lead inevitably to a communist
revolution.
Marxist Literary Approach
It is a class society under capitalism describes
how one class controls the means to produce
goods. Wealth accumulates to this small group of
owners because they hold the means of
production – the elements that harness profit,
including intellectual rights, labor, land, natural
resources, raw materials, markets, and systems of
distribution.
In addition, in capitalism, workers receive wages,
capitalists take the profit from their work, and
those who reproduce daily, and generational life
receive no recognition for their labor, in wages or
in social value. As subjects in capitalism, they are
rendered invisible or a burden to the system.
Marxist Literary Approach
Moreover, it is interested in
answering the overarching
question, whom does it [the work]
benefit? The elite? The middle
class? Marxist critics are also
interested in how the lower or
working classes are oppressed - in
everyday life and in literature.

It also examines how some aspects of our culture are
inherently patriarchal or male dominated.
Issues of gender and gendered oppression. You may

author, the presentation of characters based on their
gender, or both.

elements of a text including:
Gendered' language and symbols.
Stereotypical or unconventional portrayals of female
characters.

a text.

Feminist Criticism Technique in Writing
•Here are five key questions which can act as a base
when analyzing literature through a feminist lens:
1. Is the author, and/or narrator, male or female?
2. What are the roles of the female characters in the
text? Are they minor, secondary, or main characters?
3. How are women characterized in the text? Do you
notice any stereotypes?
4. Does the author use feminine or masculine imagery in
the text? If they do, why have they used this imagery?
5. What is the social and cultural context that the text
was written in? How has this influenced the author's
attitude toward women?
