Reseña del editor:

Although Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) died as Benito Mussolini's prisoner, leaving only newspaper articles and fragmentary notes, he is now seen as the most significant Marxist thinker since Lenin. This volume is a translation of his writings on culture, edited from his journalism and his "Prison Notebooks". Gramsci writes about both great and popular artists from Dante to Jules Verne. He sees artworks in the context of their reception and their absorption in particular cultures and histories. He is sensitive to the politics of culture as well as to the demands of philological scholarship, as his work on Dante in this volume shows. The book presents Gramsci's changing views on particular literary movements and authors, as well as his ideas on the nature of proletarian and popular cultural criticism.
