Realism does not equate too realistic. For example while realism is usually not sad, it can present things in overwhelmingly optimistic lights. 

. Realist fiction has a focus on the rise of capitalism. This is partially because as it is an unmarked style it is generally accepting of the status quo.

. Realism gained popularity for its distinct unmarkedness. This being in position to markedness which is when a form stands out as unusual.
