M. M. Bakhtin
Mikhail Mikhailovich Bakhtin was a Russian philosopher and literary critic best known for his work on dialogism, the concept of heteroglossia, and the carnivalesque in literature. His ideas about the relationship between language, power, and culture have had a profound influence on literary theory and criticism, especially in the fields of linguistics and cultural studies. Bakhtin's key works, such as 'Rabelais and His World' and 'The Dialogic Imagination,' explore how language reflects social dynamics and the multiplicity of voices within texts. His insights into the nature of dialogue and the fluidity of meaning continue to resonate in contemporary discussions about literature and authority.
