Raymond Williams

    31 agosto 1921 – 26 gennaio 1988

    Raymond Henry Williams fu un accademico, romanziere e critico gallese. I suoi scritti estesi su politica, cultura, mass media e letteratura rappresentano un contributo significativo alla critica marxista della cultura e delle arti. Williams pose le basi per il campo degli studi culturali e l'approccio del materialismo culturale. La sua analisi letteraria e la sua prospettiva critica hanno plasmato discussioni chiave all'interno della New Left e della cultura più ampia.
