This paper is deeply aimed at making a critical survey of Bakhtin’s seminal essay Epic and Novel from his collected essays The Dialogic Imagination edited by Michel Holquist. For a critical engagement with Bakhtin dialogism; all the major terms like heteroglossia, polyphony and chronotope are also discussed in the proper contexts. Also to understand and appreciate Bakhtin more cogently, his ideas and propositions on novel has been discussed with the Hungarian theorist Georg Lukacs. The ideas as espoused by Bakhtin on the major genres of literary tradition are so greatly laden with critical insight that it feels perpetually relevant and important.
