Terry Eagleton is one of the most influential contemporary English literary scholars, whose work has significantly shaped literary theory, criticism, and cultural studies. Known for his Marxist approach to literature, Eagleton has explored the relationship between literature, society, and ideology, emphasizing the role of social context in understanding literary texts (Eagleton, 2008). His research and publications have influenced not only academic circles but also the way literature is taught in schools and universities worldwide.
