A general term for the novels about the Forsyte family by British author J. Galsworthy. It consists of three parts: The Forsyte Saga (1922), Modern Comedies (1929), and The Metamorphosis of the Forsyte Family (1930). It is a major chronicle of the British bourgeoisie from the end of the Victorian era through World War I to the general strike of 1926, a time of crisis for British capitalism. Its tone is certainly critical of traditional Victorian materialism and emphasizes a free spirit, but from the second part onwards it becomes somewhat more conservative.

イギリスの作家J.ゴールズワージーのフォーサイト家を扱った小説の総称。《フォーサイト・サガ》(1922),《近代喜劇》(1929),《フォーサイト家の変貌》(1930)の3部からなる。ビクトリア朝末期から第1次大戦を経て,イギリス資本主義の危機であった1926年のゼネストの時期に至るイギリス・ブルジョア階級の一大年代記であり,その基調はたしかに因襲的なビクトリア朝の物質主義に対する批判と自由な精神の強調であるが,第2部以下ではいくぶん保守的な傾向が強まっている。
