CLL 151 - Realism and Human Value

Literature is one of many ways that human beings can represent their perception of reality and what is most significant and valuable in their lives. As perception and values undergo changes, often the form of literature changes as well. In the nineteenth century, one of the most important forms of literature is Realism. This course will look at several realist texts to develop an understanding of what defines the genre. We will also look at the way that these nineteenth century writers think about the way people use language to represent reality in order to construct ways of understanding identity and human value.
