This paper investigates the transformation of the meaning of the gentleman/ gentility in seventeenth and eighteenth-century England as the emerging middle-class gains political and cultural hegemony. The concept of gentility is central to understanding social conflicts in eighteenth-century England as the middle-class gains upward mobility.
The first two sections examine the historical meaning of a gentleman/gentility from the contemporary dictionaries and contemporary commentators’ descriptions of social orders. The third section argues that social emulation and aspiration for gentility of the middle class affect the transformation of the gentility as it analyses the relationship between the rise of the middle class and the change of the concept of gentility.
As this paper examines that definitions of gentility shift from an emphasis on innate or inherited attributes, genealogical connections or landed resources, towards acquired behavioral norms, lifestyles and learning, it argues that the novel can be seen as participating in the ideological formation and reproduction of gentility as middle class values.
