Famous quotes containing the word eagleton:

    All propaganda or popularization involves a putting of the complex into the simple, but such a move is instantly deconstructive. For if the complex can be put into the simple, then it cannot be as complex as it seemed in the first place; and if the simple can be an adequate medium of such complexity, then it cannot after all be as simple as all that.
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)

    Readers are less and less seen as mere non-writers, the subhuman “other” or flawed derivative of the author; the lack of a pen is no longer a shameful mark of secondary status but a positively enabling space, just as within every writer can be seen to lurk, as a repressed but contaminating antithesis, a reader.
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)

    Chaucer was a class traitor
    Shakespeare hated the mob
    Donne sold out a bit later
    Sidney was a nob.
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)
