Abstract

This article argues that the disconcerting power of realism can be made more accessible to students through the bias of biography. As Virginia Woolf maintains, biography’s own deployment of realism builds on its canny choice s of the facts that suggest and illuminate. As a result, the living reality of biography enables a sharper critical awareness of approaches to literary realism.
