Etymology

The term 'realist' originated in the early 19th century, initially used in the context of art to describe artists who depicted everyday life with accuracy and attention to detail. Over time, the term expanded to include philosophy and literature, referring to those who adhere to a practical and objective view of the world. Realism as a movement sought to challenge idealistic and romanticized portrayals of reality, focusing instead on the ordinary and mundane aspects of life.
