He was a miller, schoolmaster and blacksmith but lower class?
[edit]This article makes no sense unless you think there are only two classes. Needs to be some actual logic not just Kantian views of the world with simple binaries of black vs. white or upper vs. lower class.
The middle class is what made the modern Western world. 69.144.246.119 (talk) 12:54, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
Artists and novelists in the early 18th century were, by definition, from wealthy families. There were no ways to support oneself through art because there was no commercial market. This is far from the only entry that suffers from this deficiency; in fact, it's the majority since many rich people were revolutionaries and artists at a time when that couldn't pay the bills without benefactors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.144.246.119 (talk) 13:11, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
