'After Raymond Williams' applies the Welsh academic writer and novelist Raymond Williams's theory of cultural materialism to a series of readings of literature and film produced in the years since Williams's death in 1988. Williams argued that literary texts do not only reflect what is happening in a society; they also cause changes to occur.
