"The Marxian Hermeneutics of Fredric Jameson" is the first comprehensive, book-length study of Jameson's writings, from "Marxism and Form" (1971) through "Postmodernism" (1991). Wise begins his discussion by examining Jameson's tripartite hermeneutic, as introduced in "The Political Unconscious" (1981), in relation to the interpretive systems of Northrop Frye and the Patristics. From Hegelian-Marxist discourse, Jameson's critical methodology is discussed in relation to the writings of Georg Lukacs, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Theodor W. Adorno. A central contention of this study is that Jameson's writings are finally comprehensible only within the framework of "both" Hegelian-Marxism and more -traditional- hermeneutic thought."

The Author: Christopher Wise is an assistant professor of Third World and Postcolonial literatures at West Georgia College in Carrollton, Georgia. He has published numerous articles and book reviews in journals such as "MELUS, Rethinking MARXISM, Religion and Literature," and "Christianity and Literature." Dr. Wise received his Ph.D. in Comparative Literature from the University of California, Riverside in 1992.
