It then spreads out over Europe, Russian, and the United States. Recalling back to the values of Romanticism, when people adore nature and intuition, Realism is quite different from that. Realism illustrates the lives of ordinary people but its stories are not bland, boring or tasteless. Although characters in Realism are portrayed ordinarily in daily life, their stories are magnificent, outstanding and full of drama. The thing makes Realism special is that writers know how to make normal lives meaningful. Through each story of strangers in realist novels, we can see reflections of ourselves and dig in more into different aspects of life. We can rely stronger through Realism than other ISM because the Realism novel itself is brutally honest to us to relate. ]]> 2019-01-29 19:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325583050 nqtran108_2 https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325589593 Thanks to Romanticism paves its way, Realism was completely different and quite opposite. Realism mainly focused on showing daily life from middle or lower class society. In other way to say, Realism rejected Romanticism dominating French literature in 18th century. Realism avoided emotionalism, exotic and dramatic subject. American Realism became prominent after the Civil War and lasted until nineteenth century. Realism authors like Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, Rebecca Harding Davis were faithfully believed about the true beauty of reality rather than fictional events. Realism is also began as experiment make theater more useful to society. Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species in 1859 also contributed to the beginning of Realism. ]]> 2019-01-29 19:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325589593 nqtran108_2 https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325591490 This painting below is named Song Of The Lark, drawn by Jules Breton in 1884.

Before that, he was kidnapped by his drunken father with the purpose to steal away his $6000. That amount of money Finn had from the novel The Adventures of Town Sawyer. They were bonded up through many obstacles in their journey. For example, they stole all money and goods from the dead man's house, run-in with the Grangerfords and Shepherd-sons family war. They have been separated a lot but finally reunite again. One time, Jim and Huck was taken advantage of the King and the Duke when they asked them  to perform plays. Jim was then rescued by Huck and Tom Sawyer after being sold by the King.]]> 2019-01-29 20:08:02 UTC https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325593885 nqtran108_2 https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325594116 There are major themes included in Huckleberry Finn. Firstly, rather than moral superior, uncivilized way of behavior is more desirable. Secondly, food is an essential role when it comes to Huck's childhood, symbolizes for heart-warming care, protection of people towards him. To me, the most important theme is slavery since Mark Twain is greatly opposed of it by portraying Jim and encourage readers to feel sympathy and empathy. Money is also important factor contribute to the novel through its role as freedom and difference between the rich and the poor. Mississippi river is used as background meaning the short-term escape and freedom for Huck and Jim. Next theme is superstition as Jim and Huck lost rational behavior as their encounter with anything seems superstitious to them. The final theme I known is mockery of religion, Twain's past is struggled and attacked by organized religion or cults. ]]> 2019-01-29 20:08:28 UTC https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325594116 nqtran108_2 https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325594251 There are many dialects used throughout the novel such as "that ain't no matter", " It warn't no time to be sentimentering" (Huck). Huckleberry was referred as "I" entirely, 1st person of view and allow readers to take the sight through his perspectives. The tone of Huckleberry Finn is moralistic almost through the theme of anti-slavery. In the novel, Huck is chosen as a symbol for America because of he's a great, well-rounded character who was shaped into better person with new sight of life. The whole story is told with Twain's friendly, informal, youthful and colloquial tone. Perhaps Huck is a well-developed character and able to demonstrate the whole story's purpose. He was portrayed to be free-spirited, and desire for freedom in an uncivilized way. He was also raised without any disciplines and strong resistance to him whether anything that is law-based. ]]> 2019-01-29 20:08:45 UTC https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325594251 nqtran108_2 https://padlet.com/nqtran108_2/shookmang/wish/325700156 Autumn day by Sokolniki represents realism by portraying the melancholy, sadness and loneliness through the autumn landscape.
