"The author explores this tradition in depth and defines it with a breadth of vision, a dynamic vigor and freedom rarely paralleled today....His method, flexible, generous, humane in the best sense of the word, eschews pedantry, dogma, useless theorizing and scholastic argumentation."--The New York Times Book Review. "I wish to make it clear that The Gates of Horn represents an outstanding critical accomplishment."--Saturday Review. In the Odyssey, Homer describes two gates of the imagination: one of ivory through which fictitious dreams pass, and the other of horn, through which nothing but the truth may pass. Realism is the type of literature that passes through the horn, and in this significant study of the genre Levin examines a major form of Realism--the French novel--and focuses on five of its masters--Stendahl, Balzac, Flaubert, Zola, and Proust. Now available in paperback, Levin's study is a veritable reconstruction of the artistic and intellectual life of a nation.

From a historical perspective, Realism stands as a pivotal reaction against the extravagances of Romanticism, emerging in a time rife with social and political upheaval brought about by the Industrial Revolution. Artists like Gustave Courbet, the movement’s vanguard, along with Jean-Baptiste Corot, Honoré Daumier, Henri Fantin-Latour, Édouard Manet, and Jean-François Millet, shifted the artistic lens from the fantastic to the tangible, painting the world around them with unprecedented fidelity. These pioneers, renowned for their depictions of everyday life and social commentary, employed innovative techniques to capture the light, texture, and movement of the real world. Their works, often categorised under social realism, challenged conventions and laid the groundwork for Impressionism and the modern art movements that followed. Realism’s legacy, underscored by its commitment to depicting the truth of human experience, continues to resonate, offering a mirror to the contemporary world’s complexities. How does the realism of yesterday speak to the reality of today? Dive into the pages to explore the enduring power of Realism in art and society.

Champfleury (1821-1889), the prominent French nineteenth-century art critic, is renowned for his role in establishing a French realist school of art and as the champion of Gustave Courbet. Yet the extent to which his realism grows out of his deep and abiding interest in popular art has been neglected. At a time of radical disagreement about the historical, political and social role of popular culture, Champfleury creates a distinctive understanding of the art of the people. Investigating the interplay between the meaning or spirit of popular art, and its formal qualities, Champfleury's interpretation is primarily art historical. His approach forms the basis of a realist manifesto for the high art of his period. Closely analysing his work on imagery, songs, ceramics, caricature and pantomime, this book places Champfleury's approach to popular art in the context of the work of contemporary writers, historians, artists and folklorists.
