Summary
When compared with the seventy-seven heroic, pastoral and picaresque novels, the middle-class novel of manners and family life indicated an entire innovation. These various forms of heroic novels were highly common within the light-fiction category, however, by the middle of the eighteenth century, this dominance was drastically reduced (Hauser, 1999). This change was not deliberate nor methodically as opposed to older literature, and this was common in the middle-class drama novels.
The popularity of these middle-class novels was entirely different for classical tragedy literature and ultimately became the primary source of literature of the revolutionary bourgeoisie. In elevated dramas, most of the protagonists were members of the middle class, and to them, this was an expression of the rights of the middle-class to be taken seriously and be considered highly just like those heroes of tragedy in the old literature novels.
The entire history of middle-class dramas was analyzed by its origins which were in the bourgeois class-consciousness.

During this period, the theatre was propagated continuously by the identity of the particular class that had financed its operations. However, class differences were never created before due to the explicit content of its productions.

This makes it a suitable vehicle for polemics; however, the dramatist had to be impartial in public and this fostered objectivity. Supporters of this drama disputed the admissibility of propaganda compared to other forms of art. Challenges in middle-class drama arose when the enlightenment had altered the stage into a lay-pulpit and a suitable platform. This drama also renounced the Kantian apathy of art entirely (Hauser, 1999).
Compared to the past, this form of drama was highly educative and helpful especially. Before middle-class dramas were popular, previous forms of literature were cynical and doubted the effectiveness of critical moral teachings. The primary comparison between the bourgeoisie and the pre-bourgeoisie dramas is that pre-bourgeoisie did not regularly campaign for political and social equality (Hauser, 1999). Middle-class dramas currently do not take place between single people, but it focused on the hero and numerous institutions. The hero in such dramas now fought against unknown forces, and therefore, he had to develop his point of view as an abstract concept, and this denounced the prevailing social systems.
These dramas also do not have lengthy speeches and indictments since they now utilize a different form of language such as ...
