Une théorie de la littérature au risque du stalinisme. Notes pour une étude «homologique» de Lukács

This brief study aims at setting the basis for a
«homology» between Lukács’s
political and aesthetic claims, namely considering both his historical and (ideo)logical understanding. Starting from Lukács’s
literary preferences – which often do not conform to the Stalinist’s aesthetic –
I try to disentangle the complex links between his early works and the post 1930 production.
Along this line, I identify
«homologous correspondences»
between the evolution of
Lukács’s theoretical thought and the involution deployed by Stalin’s political plan.
