First. I think we are in a similar boat! I research literature and cultural studies but have become much more interested in Marxism lately, since that's where my personal politics fall (in fact, Raymond Williams specifically sent me toward Marxism). I have had to do a lot of background research and I have a few things to mention. I've done a lot of reading of Marx, Engels and Lenin. I do a lot of work in postcolonial theory, and there are some good texts that criticize postcolonialism from a materialist perspective I found specifically helpful. (LMK if that is something that interests you and I can name a few, but they're pretty specific).

First, I think this might be a good book for what you're looking for, though I haven't read it yet:

Second, I'd suggest a few podcasts:

​

Proles of the Round Table and Revolutionary Left Radio both have a TON of excellent episodes that look at different historical events and schools of thought (Rev Left is especially good for this, and is possibly my favorite podcast going rn).

Also, Dead Pundits Society is another decent podcast and is more theory focused. This one, as I recall, went through state theory quite closely and in the process ends up giving a wide breadth of names and schools:
