Trăirile personajelor și evoluția subiectului din perspectiva fenomenelor naturii în romanul realist francez din secolul al XIX-lea [Articol]

Abstract

Nature is present everywhere in the French realist writers works, contributing, through the skillful exploitation of the symbolic potential encoded in colors, shades, tones and halftones, to subject line development, to messages formulation, to affective states induction, etc. At the same time, nature descriptions are often constituted, in the plastic arts best traditions, in small landscapes and pictorial compositions. The purposes in which authors refer to nature phenomena are diverse, but necessarily closely related to the narrative context. In some cases, nature is beside the character throughout his whole life, its colors symbolizing his evolution over time, his constantly changing moods.
