dc.description.abstract | Ever.since Pilate's taunting question ("What is Truth?") to Jesus,
the problem of reality has been the centre of philosophical speculation. It has also led to various isms-conceptual realism of Plato, PlatonicAristotelian kind of realism, nominalism, empirico-idealism, subjective and objective realism, to mention a few-which turned this kind of inquiry into a tautology, if not foolish pedantries. Moreovervthe critics' perplexity over the literaty term "realism" added much to' the misconception and obscurity of the word "reality." So I am not going to define "realism," as many critics have tried, to little purpose. I would rather point out the crucial part reality plays in American literature by analyzing two short stories. Before we go on, it will be necessary to ascertain what I mean by the word "reality." Many critics agree on the complexity and multiplicity of its meanings; "it is a word which can, in the same context, have a multiplicity of meanings." Since reality changes: perpetually according to human consciousness, it has no chance of stable meaning. | - |
