DREISER’S NATURALISTIC APPROACH, IN THE EXAMPLE OF REVEALING MORAL AND ECONOMIC CONFLICTS IN SOCIETY

Abstract

Dreiser encourages readers to reflect deeply on human values ​​and the problems of society. The writer is particularly critical of the problems of society’s fundamental social institutions—family, religion, education, and the economic system. According to Dreiser, these societal problems are reflected in an individual’s personal life, leading to a tragic end.
