	Realism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Realists tended to discard theatrical drama and classical forms of art to depict commonplace or 'realistic' themes.
		Thus a realist would hold that even if one were to destroy all of the manifestations of the color red the universal red would still exist.
		The principal Realist theorists are Carr, Morgenthau, and Waltz.

	Dueling realisms.
		Ironically, although neorealists are leading critics of classical realist explanations of international behavior predicated on particular conceptions of human nature,(19) the internal coherence of the neorealist framework itself depends fundamentally on the psychological assumption that actors are characteristically highly fearful.
		Some of these realist writers portray themselves as amending and revising, rather than critiquing, the Waltzian neorealist approach.(59) As emphasized, neorealism's conception of state behavior is based on the assumption that states are conditioned by the mere possibility of conflict.
		Gilpin argues that all realists are united in assuming "the primacy in all political life of power and security in human motivation."(67) Although this may seem a clear exposition of the primary objective of decision makers, it is actually a much more ambiguous statement.

	Magic realism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The following elements are found in many magical realist novels, but not all are found in each novel and many are found in novels that fall under other genres.
		Magical realists, on the other hand, portray the real world itself as having marvelous aspects inherent in it.
		Today, magical realism is perhaps too broadly used, to characterize all realistic fictions with an eerie, otherworldly component, such as the tales of Edgar Allen Poe.

	Scientific Realism
		Scientific realists hold that the characteristic product of successful scientific research is knowledge of largely theory-independent phenomena and that such knowledge is possible (indeed actual) even in those cases in which the relevant phenomena are not, in any non-question-begging sense, observable.
		So, realists and empiricists agree that it isn't true that rational standards for the assessment of scientific evidence dictate that choice between competing theories must always be based on the results of crucial experiments.
		He points out that, according to the realist who adopts the abductive strategy, the methods of science are to be philosophically justified by appeal to a posteriori scientific findings, i.e., by appeal to the scientific realist's scientific explanation for their reliability.

	Realism
		The realist wishes to claim that apart from the mundane sort of empirical dependence of objects and their properties familiar to us from everyday life, there is no further sense in which everyday objects and their properties can be said to be dependent on anyone's linguistic practices, conceptual schemes, or whatever.
		Whereas the realist and the error-theorist agree that the sentences of the relevant area are truth-apt, apt to be assessed in terms of truth and falsity, the realist and the expressivist (alternatively non-cognitivist, projectivist) disagree about the truth-aptness of those sentences.
		The expressivist about a particular area will claim that the realist is misled by the syntax of the sentences of that area into thinking that they are truth-apt: she will say that this is a case where the conventional association of the declarative mood with assertoric force breaks down.

	Realist School of Detective Fiction
		The realist school shows a consistent tendency to eliminate the puzzle plot aspect of detective fiction, often in the name of "literary values".
		Simenon's basic paradigm, routine, realistic detection used as a framework for psychoanalysis of a group of troubled middle class suspects, seems to be the dominant blueprint for much of contemporary detective fiction today.
		While the hard-boiled school was very different from the realist school, Chandler and Hammett seemed to regard the realist writers as much admired models and precedents for their fiction.

	Realism: Artists and their Works
		The earliest Realist work began to appear in the 18th century, in a reaction to the excesses of Romanticism and Neoclassicism.
		But the great Realist era was the middle of the 19th century, as artists became disillusioned with the artifice of the Salons and the influence of the Academies.
		Besides Copley, American Realists included the painters Thomas Eakins, and Henry Ossawa Tanner, both of whom studied in France.

		The realist novel, which was establishing itself at roughly the san time as Hegel was wrestling with modernity, has a similar bifurcation in its heart.
		In Scott's works, as I've argued at length elsewhere, the individual is seen, so to speak, from the skin out, not from the skin in: the focus rests almost entirely on the social and historical aspects of human life with the inner life being relegated to the realm of the ineffable.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Magic Realism, Magical Realism
		And yet, the magical-realist text characteristically retains a tension between the realistic and the fantastic that is missing from fantasy literature or fairy tales, which likewise apply the realist mode to supernatural elements.
		Presenting realistic elements as fantastic: In what amounts to an inversion of the technique presented above, magical realism typically presents items or occurrences that from a realist perspective are perfectly ordinary as astonishing and marvellous or, by contrast, as threatening and supernaturally horrific.
		Even more fundamentally, the function of realist techniques as strategies of authorization is exposed by their application to incongruous subject matters.

	(NT)Analyst & (SP)Realist
		If the REALIST is a thinker-type, both mates may slip into a workaholic mode, but even then there will be predictable differences in the two attitudes toward work.
		And the REALIST may retort that the ANALYST is living in a fantasy world, with no appreciation of what is sensible and real.
		The REALIST may lighten the ANALYST up a bit, teach the ANALYST to let go of that overbearing preoccupation with the ``how'' and ``why'' of everything, the ego-importance of work, and living in the world of theory and future possibility.

	Objective Knowledge by Karl Popper
		This regulative ideal of finding theories which correspond to the facts is what makes the scientific tradition a realist tradition: it distinguishes between the world of our theories and the world of facts to which these theories belong.
		Moreover, the natural sciences with their critical methods of problem solving, and some of the social sciences too, especially history and economics, have represented for quite a long time our best efforts in problem solving and fact finding (by fact finding I mean, of course, the discovery of statements or theories which correspond to facts).
		And yet, it is clear that the pragmatist position will be superseded by a realist position if we can meaningfully say that a statement, or a theory, may or may not correspond to the facts.

	Thesis: Digital Realist Montage
		Lukács suggested that the bourgeois realist novel, the classic literary form with its closed text and typifications of character 'which organically bound together the particular and the general,'89 was a suitable model for contemporary realist practice.
		The main problem with the socialist realist position is that it becomes a naturalistic and formalist position which detaches from realism its flexible and critical nature.
		The central issues for a critical realist art practice is not only the consideration of the theories of knowledge which informs the work, but the temporal use of a particular technique and how this is organised (or inserted) to create the realist effect.

		In the world of Realist camera users there is an on-going debate of whether the 2.8 lenses are better than the 3.5 lenses, or how better they are, or if the 2.8 lenses justify the higher prices asked for them.

		When it comes to sex, the REALIST is typically an unabashed ``me-first'' lover, a gleefully child-like sensation seeker, an impulsive and dramatic sexual performer who enjoys love-making to the fullest, more free from conventionality and guilt tripping than any other lover type.

	Stereo Photo World Stereo Realist 35mm Camera (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		CONSIDERED by many amateur and professional stereo photographers to be indisputably the best late 20th-century 3D camera ever made, the Stereo Realist survived competition from Kodak and Revere in America and from Edixa, Iloca, Wray and other manufacturers in Europe to become a real survivor, having been continuously manufactured for more than 20 years.
		Originally developed as a private project by Milwaukee engineer Seton Rochwite, manufacture was taken up by David White—a leading manufacturer of high-quality optical instruments—and the Stereo Realist immediately captured the imagination of the American public on its launch in 1946.
		The widespread adoption of that combination by US and European stereo camera manufacturers means that SR slides can be viewed not only in Stereo Realist hand viewers (also designed by Rochwite) but in period viewers made by Kodak and others, as well as models manufactured today.

	-THE CUNNING REALIST-
		As we move further away from the initial horror and the spin kicks in again, from here on out let's not forget to evaluate the chattering punditry in the context of the dark fundamental truth that emerged from some of its members last week.
		In light of the chronic lack of accountability, the perpetual passing of the buck, the almost Soviet ethos of incompetent cronyism, and the now-obvious chaos in the White House, I think it is difficult to overstate the danger---physical and otherwise---we're all in right now.
		One of the more predictable but still outrageous claims circulating about the disaster in New Orleans is that "they were warned" and "they should have listened to the advice to leave." This is part and parcel of the line of reasoning that blames state and local officials for the scope of the disaster.
