Description

Explore a deep sociological study of the societal groups commonly known as the middle class. In this book by Routledge, the author argues that it is more accurate to view these groups as dominant groupings within society. This text provides a detailed analysis of various cultural practices and the diverse identities that exist within these social strata. Readers will encounter a wide range of characters used to illustrate these social dynamics. The study examines different archetypes, including omnivores, carnivores, herbivores, and the middle-brow. It also looks at traditional culture vultures, middle class plunderers, the urban arts eclectic, and the English gentleman. By focusing on the specific ways these groups express themselves, the book offers a unique look at social identity. A particular focus is placed on those expressing the 'silver disposition'. This work is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in anthropology and sociology, providing a complex look at how class and culture connect in the modern world.
