Abstract
The paper states the emergence of cultural materialism was in Britain in the 1980s as a critical method to literature. Benjamin’s historical materialism attributes to Marxists’ representation. Cultural materialism also plays a very important part in Marxism. The paper explores Sinfield’s trace on consensus politics in England and comes to conclusion that conflict and contradiction is the center of Cultural materialism. Cultural materialism, like new historicism, has been successful in literary studies in coping earlier formalist concerns with textual unity and humanist concerns and altering the ways in which we handle literary texts and their meanings.
