”En begravning är i alla fall ett stort nöje för en kvinna av hennes klass” : Om klasskillnaderna i Hjalmar Söderbergs roman Doktor Glas / “A funeral is, after all, a great pleasure for a woman of her class” : About the class differences in Hjalmar Söderberg’s novel Doctor Glas

Description

The purpose of this essay has been to examine how the concept of class, based upon György Lukács theory of reflection, is shown in the novel Doctor Glas by the author Hjalmar Söderberg. Class is also compared to its relation to locations mentioned in the novel. The method the essay is using, is a comparative reading between the novel and the chronicle En Stockholmskrönika från sekelskiftet, also written by Söderberg. I try to trace and point out where these differences can be shown, in relation to where the characters in the novel are geographically located. The essay confirms that the concept of reflection does not apply, or fails to do so, on Söderberg’s novel or on the compared chronicle.
