Description

Explore the evolving relationship between literature and social status with Literature and Poverty by Routledge. This academic work provides a comprehensive overview of how literary perceptions of the poor have changed throughout history. Part I tracks the journey from the Hebrew Bible to the French Revolution. You will learn about the Scriptural ideal of the 'holy poor' and how biblical views on poverty were eventually contested by European legislation and public opinion as capitalism and the state replaced the influence of the Church. Part II examines the period from the French Revolution through World War II. This section addresses the complex problems brought about by industrialization and population shifts. This book is an essential resource for students and readers interested in how historical changes and social movements are reflected in written works.
