Write 10 sentences about the change to Realism, Nationalism, Naturalism, Regionlism

Realism, Regionalism, and Naturalism are intertwined and connected. Their influence has dominated most literature created since 1920, though the movement itself is dated to roughly that point. They are truly American modes of writing.

Realism: rapid industrial growth in America (post-Civil War)

and expansion (transportation improvements);  change from agrarian (farming, rural) way of life to  urban (cities) existence

Nationalism:

Naturalism: The swell of immigrants in the latter half of the 19th

century, which led to a larger lower class and  increased poverty in the cities

The realist believes that people can choose a direction in life

and make choices to shape it.

• The regionalist depicts the mood of society in a particular

region and culture.

• The naturalist believes that human life is determined by

heredity and environment – individuals are without free will

and trapped in predestined lives that they cannot change.

• Their influence has dominated most literature created

since 1920, though the movement itself is dated to

roughly that point.
