    Realism Realism 1861- 1914: An artistic movement begun in 19th century France. Artists and writers strove for detailed realistic and factual description. They tried to represent events and social conditions as they actually are, without idealization. This form of literature believes in fidelity to actuality in its representation. Realism is about recreating life in literature. Realism arose as an opposing idea to Idealism and Nominalism. Idealism is the approach to literature of writing about everything in its ideal from. Nominalism believes that ideas are only names and have no practical application. Realism focused on the truthful treatment of the common, average, everyday life. Realism focuses on the immediate, the here and now, the specific actions and their verifiable consequences. Realism seeks a one-to-one relationship between representation and the subject. This form is also known as mimesis. Realists are concerned with the effect of the work on their reader and the reader's life, a pragmatic view. Pragmatism requires the reading of a work to have some verifiable outcome for the reader that will lead to a better life for the reader. This lends an ethical tendency to Realism while focusing on common actions and minor catastrophes of middle class society. Realism aims to interpret the actualities of any aspect of life, free from subjective prejudice, idealism, or romantic color. It is in direct opposition to concerns of the unusual, the basis of Romanticism. Stresses the real over the fantastic. Seeks to treat the commonplace truthfully and used characters from everyday life. This emphasis was brought on by societal changes such as the aftermath of the Civil War in the United States and the emergence of Darwin's Theory of Evolution and its effect upon biblical interpretation.

Prior to 1860, Americans had been taught to think of themselves as exceptional in many ways, and they had grown used to viewing the North American continent as a great blank canvas it was their manifest destiny to inscribe. But after 1865, with the end of the Civil War and the first assassination of an American president, Americans required a new narrative to tell themselves about themselves.

  • Two Tendencies Beyond Realism in Arthur Miller's Dramatic Works
    Inês Evangelista Marques 2º Ciclo de Estudos em Estudos Anglo-Americanos, variante de Literaturas e Culturas The Intimate and the Epic: Two Tendencies beyond Realism in Arthur Miller’s Dramatic Works A critical study of Death of a Salesman, A View from the Bridge, After the Fall and The American Clock 2013 Orientador: Professor Doutor Rui Carvalho Homem Coorientador: Professor Doutor Carlos Azevedo Classificação: Ciclo de estudos: Dissertação/relatório/Projeto/IPP: Versão definitiva 2 Abstract Almost 65 years after the successful Broadway run of Death of a Salesman, Arthur Miller is still deemed one of the most consistent and influential playwrights of the American dramatic canon. Even if his later plays proved less popular than the early classics, Miller’s dramatic output has received regular critical attention, while his long and eventful life keeps arousing the biographers’ curiosity. However, most of the academic works on Miller’s dramatic texts are much too anchored on a thematic perspective: they study the plays as deconstructions of the American Dream, as a rebuke of McCarthyism or any kind of political persecution, as reflections on the concepts of collective guilt and denial in relation to traumatizing events, such as the Great Depression or the Holocaust. Especially within the Anglo-American critical tradition, Miller’s plays are rarely studied as dramatic objects whose performative nature implies a certain range of formal specificities. Neither are they seen as part of the 20th century dramatic and theatrical attempts to overcome the canons of Realism. In this dissertation, I intend, first of all, to frame Miller’s dramatic output within the American dramatic tradition.

  • Nature in American Realism and Romanticism and the Problem with Genre
    Nature in American Realism and Romanticism and the Problem with Genre BY MARTIN GROFF Early literature in the United States, written during a time when the vast North American landscape remained largely unexplored by European settlers, reflects a profound connection to nature and the centrality of the wilderness to the young nation’s culture and consciousness. But as the romantic and transcendentalist movements began to fade in the United States by the mid-nineteenth century, the portrayal of nature began to change as well, shifting away from the sublime and overtly spiritual and towards a so-called realist style. Ecocritics have long given attention to romantic representations of nature given the prominence of this aesthetic in both eighteenth and nineteenth century US and British literature. Though earlier scholarship tended to view nature predominantly as a spiritual metaphor for romantics, recent ecocritics “tend to place a new emphasis on the romantics’ engagement with the materiality of nature and their acute sense of the deterioration of wild and rural landscapes during processes of enclosure and industrialization.”1 Despite such shifts in critical emphasis, contemporary ecocriticism nonetheless frequently continues to rely on canonical assumptions. For instance, Ashton Nichols’s recent Beyond Romantic Ecocriticism: Toward Urbanatural Roosting (2011), even in its rethinking of certain traditional canonical models, reinforces the category of romanticism as a basis for analyses of historical ecologies. Confining ecocritical studies to the 1U. K. Heise, “Environment and Poetry,” in The Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics, ed. Roland Greene, et al. (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2012), 437. Valley Humanities Review Spring 2015 1 borders of genres and movements such as “romanticism” and “realism,” however, presents certain risks.

The participant will gain a basic familiarity with a number of artistic movements including the Ashcan School, Cubism, Futurism, Precisionism, Regionalism, and Social Realism. With a heightened understanding of the social forces that shaped this art, the participant will be well positioned to use this fall’s “American Modernism” exhibition at the Frye Art Museum as a tool in his or her own teaching.

We will read a number of canonical and non-canonical American writers, including Henry James, Kate Chopin, Stephen Crane, W.E.B. Du Bois, Edith Wharton, Ernest Hemingway, T.S. Eliot, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Langston Hughes, and many others. We will seek to place these late 19th- and early 20th-century authors and texts in their specific cultural, literary, and historical contexts and examine how they illustrate the changes in American society and culture during this period. What are the main characteristics of realism, naturalism, and modernism? How do realist, naturalist, and modernist writers differ from each other? How did various socio-historic and cultural conflicts affect American writers? What was the impact of modernization of American life on these texts and the way they reflect American society? These are only some of the questions we will be asking in our readings of novels, dramatic literature, poetry, and non-fiction as well as visual arts and film. Catalogue Description ENGL 2303 TOPICS IN LITERATURE (3-0).
