Abstract: What is the meaning of life? We‟ve all been confused about this question. In this sagacious and thought-provoking work The Meaning of Life, Terry Eagleton penetrates the surface layers and reaches deep into the inner problems of the meaning of life. He encounters Pre-modernism, Modernism and Postmodernism at the question of the meaning of life, lists all sorts of questions and gives corresponding refutation. In the position of Marxism, he provides enlightenment of this inevitable problem for everyone from the perspective of philosophy. Finally, he presents an ideal that the meaning of life lies in the spirit of a jazz group, which implements the return and extension of the tradition.
