Using selections by American, British, French, German, Russian,
Scandinavian, Spanish, Portuguese, and South American critics and
authors, Professor Becker illustrates how realism arose as a
reaction to romanticism, and how the practitioners of realism
developed conflicting ideas about the means they should use and the
ends toward which they should strive. The selections are concerned
mainly with prose, since, according to the author, prose fiction
has been the major vehicle of realism. Originally published in
1963. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
