Resum

 

This article analyses theoretical and ideological tensions in the fictional work of Welsh miner-author Lewis Jones. It surveys its treatment of standard categories in the Marxist-Leninist canon and pays particular attention to the shaping role of collective formations in the development of individual consciousness. It further explores the articulation of abstract and concrete expressions of collective identity by assessing the relative status of notions such as "class" and "community", placing both in a teleological frame of reference in which "History" functions as an absolute horizon of sense validation.
