The Rise of Realism English 11

Today we discussed the Rise of Realism and how American literature shifted from Romanticism to Realism. Society tends to gravitate towards what is real think of all the reality television that is currently rotting our brains. Thanks to Holt, Rinehart and Winston we have the Rise of Realism PowerPoint Yay! I can hear all that applause out there in Cyberland. We will not only depend on the PowerPoint's...yes, I have more, but we will also do a Reader's Theatre--don't worry I'll tell you all about it.

Keep in mind as we read different Realism literature selections what the country was going through politically, socially, and economically. How do these changes effect what writers wrote about?
