Terry Eagleton is a famous Marxist literary theorist of British,who takes his place among the field of Western literary theory in the present age.There is not yet the sufficient study on the Eagletonian critical theory in our country up to now,for this reason,we need pay more attention to our research, we can look at all aspects of this problem in addition. According to seeing about the original concept of ideology and Marxist understanding on this concept,thesis attempts to use ideology ,very important concept of the Eagletonian critical theory, as a point of departure, and grasps the evolutive track of concept ideology in the Eagletonian critical theory.There are four sections in full text.Before section one, I give a sketch for experience and scholarly road of Eagleton. Section one analyzes current conditions of study to Eagleton at home and abroad,and explores the meaning of studying Eagletonian ideological literary criticism.Today, most of people take the study from macroscopic side,however,they ignore some microscopic to think this problem,in view of these fact,my thesis chooses concept ideology as approach to research Eagletoman critical theory.The concept ideology is one of the most complex philosophical categories,so,In order to offer necessary background to uderstand Eagletonian ideological literary criticism ,section two begins with phlogeny of ideological theory and traces evolutionary process of concept ideology,from Tracy,Marx to Engels and Lenin. Section three discusses the concept ideology in Eagletonian ideological literary criticism in detail.For understanding the trait of Eagletonian critical theory and the place of concept ideology in it from all aspects,I talk separately about Eagleton's cognition to concept ideology and relations between concept ideology and other important concepts,such as the theory of art production, in Eagletonian critical theory. Section four is also conclusion.For the sake of assessing strong points of Eagletonian ideological literary criticism and its revelation to our literary theory more objective,I compare Eagleton with three theorists who make deep influence on his theory ,thus understanding his theory deeply.The purpose of studying Eagelton's theory is to seek direct or indirect enlightment.So I also discuss some ideas which are beneficial to construct our national and overall literary theory.The last part of thesis analyses the response of Eagletonian ideological literary criticism to its context,in order that we can understand this theory all over and make people think it more deeply.
