Abstract

The study of Phenomena of Social Changes in France Society during Pre-Revolution Era Potrayed in Patrick Suskind‟s Novel „Perfume: The Story of a Murderer’ is carried out to find out what social changes that occurred during early 18th century in France. The objective of this study is Patrick Suskind’s novel “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer”. I used descriptive qualitative method. By using this method, I interpret, describe, and then find the object of the study to be in line with the topic of the study. I searched any words from the novel that indicates aspects of social changes, both in material culture and nonmaterial culture. I listed words, phrases or sentences in tables for easier understanding. The results indicate that there are some changes happened in the middle of France society. Both in material culture and nonmaterial culture. The most significance change involved the rise of the Bourgeois Liberal Revolution. But, their existence did not fully pushed away the old classes that existed before, but the power of other classes people diminished in relation to the power of the raising bourgeois. New habits and new way of thinking have been brought to the society as wealthy people rising in France society during early 18th century. The bourgeois had grown essentially control the internal government of the country through a large and very effective bureaucracy. People started to move in a direction that leads them into social changes.
