In literary criticism, a bildungsroman (German pronunciation: [ˈbɪldʊŋs.ʁoˌmaːn]) is a literary genre that focuses on the psychological and moral growth and change of the protagonist from childhood to adulthood (coming of age).[1][2][3][4][a] The term comes from the German words Bildung ('formation') and Roman ('novel').
