Realism

Romanticism vs. Realism The world is simpler and more beautiful when you have a connection to nature. Emotional expression is best when it is exaggerated to prove your intensity and passion. We should focus on the amazing details of life and glorify the beauty of nature, especially man’s connection to it! The world is complex and cannot be simply described. Emotional expression should be realistic in order to reveal the importance of relationships. We should focus on the seemingly insignificant details to illuminate the complexities of man and society!

Characteristics: Romanticism vs Realism Focus on details about the common man Character’s attitude and actions are legitimate topics of literature Nature is described literally Exploration of seemingly insignificant details to reveal important complexities Romanticism Interest in the common man and childhood Strong senses, emotions, and feelings Awe of nature Celebration of the individual and imagination

Techniques: Romanticism vs. Realism Unrealistic Characters Character is a “god” Plot is unusual events, mystery, high adventure Story is “told” Exaggeration Setting is for plot The language is often “literary” (formal) Realistic characters Characters are normal people Plot is ordinary events Story is “shown” Objectivity Setting is for characterization Writer uses everyday, “normal speech

Realism – focus on the ordinary Focus on everyday activities instead of romanticized, stylized interpretations Characters resemble ordinary people Writer is interested in recent or contemporary life Hyperfocus on details to illuminate the world’s complexities

Let’s Compare - Paintings White Horse - Constable The Gleaners, 1857 Jean-François Millet Romantic Realistic

Friedrich – Wanderer ROMANTIC Man as “god” Mysterious Nature!

Millet – Woman Baking Bread REALISTIC!
