- Definition(s)
- A type of novel where the protagonist is initiated into adulthood through knowledge, experience, or both, often by a process of disillusionment. Understanding comes after the dropping of preconceptions, a destruction of a false sense of security, or in some way the loss of innocence. Some of the shifts that take place are these:
* ignorance to knowledge
* innocence to experience
* false view of world to correct view
* idealism to realism
* immature responses to mature responses
Examples:
* Jane Austen Northanger Abbey
* Charles Dickens, Great Expectations
* Stephen Crane, The Red Badge of Courage VirtualSalt - Robert Harris

- Definition(s)
- A bildungsroman German: "novel of education") is a coming-of-age kind of novel. It arose during the German Enlightenment. In it, the author presents the psychological, moral and social shaping of the personality of a character, usually the protagonist. The term Bildungsroman was coined by Johann Carl Simon Morgenstern.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bildungsroman
Das Genre des Bildungsromans entstand im Deutschland der Aufklärung und thematisiert die Entwicklung einer (meist jungen) Hauptfigur.
Der zugrunde liegende Begriff stammt aus Vorträgen des Dorpater Philologen Karl Morgenstern (1770–1852), der im Bildungsroman die „das Wesen des Romans im Gegensatz des Epos am tiefsten erfassende besondere Art desselben“[1] sah. Der deutsche Begriff wird auch in vielen anderen Sprachen, wie etwa dem Englischen, verwendet.

- Example sentence(s)
- In einem Bildungsroman geht es um die „Auseinandersetzung einer zentralen Figur mit verschiedenen Weltbereichen“ [2]. Somit nimmt der Bildungsroman formal gesehen eine „Zwischenstellung zwischen Figuren- und Raumroman“ [2] ein. Die zentrale Figur, der Held, macht eine Entwicklung durch, die von seinem Verhältnis zu den „verschiedenen Weltbereichen“, also seiner Umwelt, bestimmt wird [3]. Das Ganze spielt sich meistens in der Jugend des Helden ab, und die erzählte Zeit erstreckt sich über mehrere Jahre, oft sogar Jahrzehnte. Der Bildungsroman weist somit Elemente einer Biografie auf. - Wikipedia
