Downward Mobility

The Form of Capital and the Sentimental Novel

Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

The book examines the myth of downward mobility in capitalism, positioning it alongside the more commonly discussed upward mobility. Through the lens of contemporary critical finance studies and narrative theory, it analyzes how eighteenth-century sentimental novels reflect the complexities of economic growth and financial failure. These narratives reveal that stories of downward mobility are not merely about loss but serve to navigate and manage the crises inherent in capitalist systems.
