True
False
Solution
The answer is False.
Explanation:
Realism in Literature: Realism is a literary movement that aims to represent life as it is, focusing on everyday activities and experiences. It emphasizes the depiction of ordinary people and situations in a truthful, unidealized manner.
Selective Representation: While realism strives for accuracy, it does not include everything indiscriminately. Authors select details that contribute to a realistic portrayal of life, often focusing on social issues, character development, and moral dilemmas.
Photographic Accuracy: The term "photographic accuracy" suggests an objective, detailed depiction, but realism involves subjective choices about which aspects of life to highlight.
In summary, realism involves selective representation to convey a truthful depiction of life, rather than including everything without selection.
