Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Naturalist of Souls: Studies in Psychography Some one asked Zola why he used the term, "Naturalism," when there was nothing about his work that was essentially different from realism or from other literary forms that had been employed for thousands of years before his time. "I know all that," he said. "You are perfectly right. But I needed a name to attract the attention of the public. When I repeat the word over and over, it is bound at last to make people think there is something in it. It is like driving a nail. The first blow does not amount to much; but as you add another, and another, and another, in the end you make progress." I confess that my use of the word, "Psychography," was at first something like Zola´s use of "Naturalism." It was not even my own original invention, though I had coined it for myself before I discovered that it had been used by Professor Saintsbury a few years earlier in discussing the work of Sainte-Beuve.
