Auf den Spuren der 'Neuen Bürgerlichkeit' in Arno Geigers Roman „Alles über Sally“
Following the traces of 'a new bourgeois class' in Arno Geiger's novel „Alles über Sally“

Summary/Abstract: The picture of a society in “Alles fiber Sally”, Arno Geiger's novel, presented from the perspective of a contemporary family and marriage, has been submitted to the analysis whose aim was to find any possible traces referring to "a new bourgeois class". This category can be used to describe neoconservative trends in the attitudes of the citizens of Europe on the verge of 20th and 19th centuries. Contemporary researchers regard the coincidence of the process of individualization and traditional middle class values that lasting for the last three years to be a new quality of culture. The analysis of the novel focuses on the theme of women's emancipation as both the starting point and as a reference point for the contemporary model of socialization.
