Thesis (Ph.D.)--Brown University, 2004.

The development of the Spanish bourgeoisie throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries is generally simultaneous with the history of the generic institution of the novel. In a society shaken by increased mobility and economic upheaval, novels provide the textual space in which the middle class's behavioral codes are drawn, and thus contribute to the establishment of a sense of order. This textual space so implicated in the demarcation of the rituals of the bourgeoisie intersects with the physical urban space that principally defines this newly predominant class.

520 $a The development of the Spanish bourgeoisie throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries is generally simultaneous with the history of the generic institution of the novel. In a society shaken by increased mobility and economic upheaval, novels provide the textual space in which the middle class's behavioral codes are drawn, and thus contribute to the establishment of a sense of order. This textual space so implicated in the demarcation of the rituals of the bourgeoisie intersects with the physical urban space that principally defines this newly predominant class.
520 $a Drawing on Henri Lefebvre's theoretical considerations of social space and Richard Schechner's study of the function of public performance, this dissertation explores how certain key spaces serve as points of negotiation for the rituals of the Spanish bourgeoisie. This study is structured along masculine and feminine lines since the bourgeois spaces of this era are primarily gendered spaces, although it argues that key public realms emerge in the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Spanish novel as loci of tension in which the fundamental gender-based dichotomies of the bourgeoisie are both determined and reassessed.
520 $a This study of the evolution of the modern middle class novel begins with the serialized works of the mid-nineteenth century. Whereas these popular narratives looked favorably on dynamism within the class structure and provided readers with a guide to public behaviors that demanded societal approval, this dissertation reveals how later Realist novels often depicted simulacra of these former rituals in highly critical terms, and functioned semiotically to limit entrance to the already established middle class. Finally, this study examines the Generation of '98 and Modernista authors who ultimately propose social alternatives to the bourgeois norms enacted in earlier works. Seen together, these novels show a chronological development in the way space is socially configured, and in which the set of social options available to bourgeois citizens is concomitantly constructed.
