Abstract: The aim of this paper is, on the one hand, to present Cultural Studies, as well as the Birmingham School and the Contemporary Centre for Cultural Studies. It was the members of the first generation of the Birmingham School through the CCCS who initiated the constitution of the cultural fact as an academic discipline through Cultural Studies. The aim is to show how some authors of 20th century revisionist Marxism, especially Antonio Gramsci, had a decisive influence on the thinking and the concept of culture of the three founding members of the CCCS: Raymond Williams, Edward P. Thompson and Richard Hoggart. To do so, we analyse the major works of these three intellectuals, which were published very close to the beginning of the CCCS at the University of Birmingham. These works are: "The Formation of the Working Class in England" by Edward P. Thompson, "Working Class Culture in Mass Society" by Richard Hoggart and "Culture and Materialism" by Raymond Williams, the latter written around the eighties of the 20th century, in which Williams' conception of culture is exposed and where we can observe the clear influence of Gramsci in his thought through his explanation of the cultural fact by means of the way in which he himself understood Marxism.
