"I am a member of the bourgeois class, feel myself to be such, andhave been brought up on its opinions and ideals," wrote Max Weber,in 1895. Who could repeat these words today?
Thus begins Franco Moretti's study of the bourgeois in modernEuropean literature, where a gallery of individual portraits isentwined around the analysis of specific keywords - such as 'useful'and 'earnest', 'efficiency', 'influence', 'comfort', 'roba' - and of theformal mutations of the medium of prose. The book charts the riseand fall of bourgeois culture, exploring the causes for its historical
weakness, and searches for the seeds of its failures.
