What is proletarian literature? If Raymond Williams defines literature as a "settled body of works, or kinds of works" (1977:I), and Salvador Lopez defines literature as the continuous interpretation of the experiences of a particular man or woman in relation to one's social milieu (1973), then we can define proletarian literature as a settled body of works or kinds of works that is the continuous interpretation of the experiences of the proletariat.
