Red Badge of Courage Naturalism
realism in the Red Badge of Courage Naturalism is the belief that nature and fate is a far larger hug than man. Another words, no star can check into their fate because on that point are far larger forces than man. There were many practice sessions of realness in R B O C. One example was on foliate 796 in chapter one where the union soldiers were waiting around in multitude with absolutely no control over when they were going into battle.The rationality this was considered naturalism is because the larger force was the generals and people in charge of the war. The soldiers could not violate the south until told to do so by there commanders. Another example that I found was when the statuesque soldier (Jim Conklin) dies. One of the lawsuits his death was so important was because it gave Henry somewhat of an understanding that war is not excellent and people die.Another reason his death was so important is because it essentially tells everyone that life is unfair and eve n if someone such as the tall soldier is the notable soldiers in camp, when it is your time to die, you are going to die. The reason that this is an example of naturalism is because no one except god himself had control over the tall soldiers death. The final example of naturalism is how nature completely ignores the war and what ever people are doing. In the beginning of the novel, Henry has the perception that war is glorious and will warp him into an instant hero.He had dreamed of dodging bullets, saving people, and doing things that no one else would do which is a highly romanticized version of how war really is. The reason this was thought of as a naturalistic element is because nature doesnt care about the war, its vividnesss are the exact same color and shades of brown, green, and other nasty colors, opposed to the colors that Henry imagined of purple blues, purples, reds, and golds, which hardly ever occur in nature.
