Author David Grazian defines cultural capital as, “one’s store of knowledge and proficiency with artistic and cultural style that are valued by society and confer prestige and honor upon those associated with them”(Grazian141). There are two types of cultural capital, one being high-brow culture which Grazian defines as being, “the fine arts consumed by the affluent classes,” and the other being lowbrow culture which Grazian then describes as being, “the kinds of mass culture stereotypically associated with the working class or so called lower class” (Grazian 132).
