Compare and Contrast the two Literary Movements (Realism& Romanticism)
- Realism pertains to that which was real often scenes from the lives of the lower classes
while Romanticism was largely fictionalized and often portrayed scenes that were pure
fantasy. The similarities are they both are basic views of life and humanity, stripping
away the layers of Romanticism to present a natural or real outlook of the work. Both of
these pessimistic views came to be in a time around the 19th century, a period known for
its trials and tribulation.
