Abstract

"No artist tolerates reality", as far as this quotation of nietzsche is concerned, it is true that artists - and therefore writers - cannot tolerate reality, and that is the reason why they often aim at changing this reality through their art, and in the case of writers, through their written work. That is also why every literary movement has been created in reaction to a previous movement or as a rejection of the context of this time. Nevertheless, even though they have been doing this since art exists, artists cannot get along without reality neither, for they are inevitably living in it. Artists are using art and artistic creation to express a rejection of reality, but in order to do so they necessarily have to consider what reality is and what it lacks which makes them unable to tolerate it.
