Critical Realism - British Realism

Famous quotes containing the words british and/or realism:

“Gorgonised me from head to foot,
With a stony British stare.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“Art is beauty, and every exposition of art, whether it be music, painting, or the drama, should be subservient to that one great end. As long as nature is a means to the attainment of beauty, so-called realism is necessary and permissable [sic], but it must be realism enhanced by idealism and uplifted by the spirit of an inner life or purpose.”
—Julia Marlowe (1866–1950)
