The birth of the psychological novel The appearance of the French psychological novel between 1880 and 1890 corresponds to a certain strategy of reconversion. This strategy should be seen in relation to the economic situation of the different literary forms and their position in the hierarchy of legitimacy. Grouped round Paul Bourget we find a collection of writers who had left to the way-side the encumbered though prestigeous field of poetry. They preferred the genre novel which was then in full expansion but often considered to be a less noble literary form. They endeavoured to elevate the status of their new field of activity by imposing the utilization of schemes borrowed from the psychology of Taine which was a dominant intellectual factor of the epoch. The consecration by these writers of this literary form is due to the importance of their social and cultural capital. As a consequence, the naturalist novel produced by writers of lower middle class origin was relegated to an inferior position in the hierarchy of literary forms.
