Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary Movement in France During the Nineteenth Century How few writers of the day have entered so deeply into the nature of artistic methods, their origin and moral import Not only do Idealism and Realism correspond to particular conceptions of art, limited in each case; they also disclose the physical and moral idiosyncrasies which these dif terences of aesthetics indicate. There will always be two families of minds, the one drawn towards what is beautiful and noble in the world, the other towards its miseries and horrors. Why, he questions, may not one of these two conceptions prevail without attempting to exclude the other? If there is no truly human, no truly complete art, surely its highest aim is not to distort and deform life by submitting it to formulas which express but a part of the truth 1 2.
