    Dear Shuvadip,

    Greetings!!

    As per your query, the text of the notable works (According to Lucien) is not the outcome of any individual genius, instead they are based upon the trans-individual mental structures that is linked to the particular group of society as economical, political or social. These 'world-view' are perpetually being constructed and dissolved by social groups as they adjust their mental image of the world in response to the changing reality before them. These world views are further presented by the great novelists of time and thus the theory of homology between the literary form of the novel...and the everyday relation between man and commodities in general, and by extension between men and other men, in a market society is established. 

    Thank you for asking your query.
