  Literature
Virginia is producing at last a literature both indigenous to its soil and imbuied with a realism that may be said to capture the major portion of the truth about its people and its civilization.
The Reconstruction literature of Virginia, however, which endured well into the twentieth century, was characterized by a nostalgia for the past and a romantic idealism that evaded facts.
Literature sustained a loss in 18o8 when John Daly Burk, a gallant young Irishman, was killed in a duel ten years after his coming to Virginia.

 French 2330: French Literature in Translation 2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Unlike the seventeenth century’s Cardinal de Richelieu, who believed that there was one standard of literary perfection that all writers should strive to emulate and/or approximate, she argued that literary merit depended on a number of relative factors, such as the religion, laws, morals, geography, and even the climate of individual countries.
This tendency, most in evidence in the literature of the 1820s and 1830s, was linked perhaps to the fall of the Napoleonic ideal that resulted in the collapse of the glorious dreams of a whole generation of writers.
For the first time in French literature, poetry becomes not an art of pure form (wherein the message is secondary to the formal poetic structure) but an art of sincere communication.

They are, at the present time, not only engrafted into the literature of the civilized world, but are familiar as household words in the common intercourse and daily conversation of the inhabitants of all countries.
