To make sense of the confusion we might feel now, Terry Eagleton makes it clear in this book that something has changed, but what from? Eagleton provides at least the brass tacks here, and does it in a very readable and humorous way. Why indeed are todays grad literature students concentrating their studies on S&M when there might be so many more useful things to do?
Whilst it would be useful for you to read the whole book, plus any number of others Eagleton has written of the same type, including 'Literary Theory' a standard text, and 'Why Marx was Right' (just Google him) I would expect you to enjoy the first few chapters for the benefit of this session.
