Identify the elements that characterize the realism genre in literature.

Realism in literature is characterized by its use of the setting, characters and the themes of the real world.

Explanation:

Realism is a literary movement where the writers write about things that are of the real world, of real world issues and true characterization. It is the opposite of what is being represented by the Romantics and Fantasy writers. Instead of using fantasy settings and themes, with imagery and figurative language, realism focuses on the use of the real world settings and themes, depicting or writing about things as they are seen, with no 'decorative' language.
