American Misfits and the Making of Middle-Class Respectability
by Wuthnow, Robert
|
| |
| The quest for middle-class respectability in 19th-century America is usually described as a process of inculcating positive values such as honesty, hard work, independence, and cultural refinement. But clergy, educators, and community leaders also defined respectability negatively, by maligning individuals and group -- misfits -- who deviated from accepted norms. Robert Wuthnow here provides an in-depth examination of a wide variety of individuals and groups that became objects of derision. | | |
