How does the plot reflect the realist nature of Editha?

The realists reflect that the plot of Editha brought disillusioning by the effects that the war had on their society. They saw that the authors accurately show life as problem because the United States in the late 1800’s was experiencing swift growth and change because of changing economy, society and culture. Realists continually give a comprehensive picture of modern life by presenting the entire picture. They attempts to describe life without idealization or romantic subjectivity. The plot reflects the characteristics of realist-era literature in that it does not revolve around dramatic events nor does it contain larger-than-life heroes.The story is carried forward by the complexity of its characters. It is the conflicts the characters experience that create causal relationships between two events that push the story forward. Although the author uses the backdrop of a war, the story "Editha" actually moves forward due to Editha’s manipulative character. She exploits her lover into believing in an idea he decidedly abhors, which in turn leads to his death. But the death of George Gearson is not the culmination of the story; his death is only an event that leads Editha to go to Mrs. Gearson, who finally reveals to Editha the folly of her beliefs. The story upholds the ideals and opinions of George, who is not a conventionally heroic character.

samuel gompers was an extremely important person in the american labor movement, being him an employee all his life he devoted himself to fight for the rights of his pairs, he believed they all had the right to have better thing and that they all were working for them but the factory workers were greedy, ambitions and socialist people for him who he didn't have a good concept of.

he gave so many speeches and led so many strikes and protest to fight for equality which he considered employers didn't want to accept, so he had an absolutely negative opinion of them.

you didn't list the options but im guessing it's resolving contradictions
