CHAPTER I Introduction of naturalism and naturalistic imagination.

1.1Introduction of Naturalism

Webster’s Dictionary gives naturalism a concise definition: A made of thought [religious, moral or philosophical] Glorifying nature and excluding supernatural and spiritual elements close adherence to nature in art or literature, esp.[In literature] the technique, chiefly associated with Zola, used to present a naturalistic philosophy, esp. By emphasizing the effect of heredity and environment on human nature and action [ The Webster’s dictionary of the English 1998,p.667] language .Naturalism was first proposed and formulated by Emile Zola, the French writer and theorist, who is universally labeled as the founder of literary naturalism. Naturalism was a literary movement taking place from 1865 to 1900 that used detailed realism to suggest that social conditions , heredity, and environment had inescapable force in shaping human character. Naturalistic writers were influenced by the evolution theory of Charles Darwin . They believed that one’s heredity and social environment determine one’s character and influence the actions of itssubjects.You might have noticed a trend .That gets us to exploring the elements of naturalism in more detail. Naturalism emerged shortly after realism .the two styles have a few things in common. Both strive to depict the world in a honest, straightforward fashion during a period covering roughly the 1800s through to world war II. You had romanticism before then full of symbolism , supernatural elements and high emotion. Both naturalism and realism stripped all that artifice away to get at the real world. Stephen Crane’s the red badge of courage for example, is a brutally honest portrait of a gruesome war. One of its most haunting passages involves the young soldier coming across a decaying corpse. This is what real war is like death and decay. Naturalism was also influenced by the work of Charles Darwin .Social Darwinism , or the survival of the fittest , was a new concept in the late 1800s . Naturalists focused on how class and heredity aren’t just obstacles to be overcome but inescapable barres to our success . Think about any Charles dickens novel. These are from the Victorian era which also preceded naturalism . Speaking of dark , there’s frank Norris and his 1899 novel MC Teague . That show about the high school teacher who ends up as meth kingpin MC Teague is sort of like that, only with a detest and none of that successful period in the middle just the harrowing stuff.
