Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book engages with the rise of realism in American literature. The author presents the impact of realism on various literary figures of the late 19th century, their works, and the era's literary landscape. The shift from the rigid, somber nature of prior literary periods into the grittier, more sincere style of realism is examined in this book, along with how this transition is reflected in particular works of the period such as "In The Tennessee Mountains" by Mary Murfree, "A Hazard of New Fortunes" by William Dean Howells, "Maggie: A Girl of the Streets" by Stephen Crane, and "McTeague" by Frank Norris. The author also delves into the causal factors behind this departure from established literary tradition and how this artistic shift laid the groundwork for how we view literature today.
