Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; originally modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: real adj.2, -ism suffix.
Etymology: < real adj.2 + -ism suffix, originally after German Realismus (1781 in Kant; 1798 with reference to literature). Compare French réalisme (1801 with reference to Kantian philosophy, 1829 with reference to scholastic philosophy, 1875 with reference to Platonic philosophy; 1826 with reference to literature, 1843 with reference to art; 1855 in sense ‘pragmatism’). Compare earlier realist n., and also idealism n.
I. Philosophical uses.
1.
a. The doctrine that matter as the object of perception has real existence ( natural realism) and is neither reducible to universal mind or spirit nor dependent on a perceiving agent. Cf. idealism n. 1, phenomenalism n.

A philosophical theory reacting against 19th-cent. idealism which, while agreeing in affirming that external objects exist independently of the mind, differs in accounts of appearance, perception, and illusion; (more recently, opposed to verificationism): the theory that the world has a reality that transcends the mind's analytical capacity, and hence that propositions are to be assessed in terms of their truth to reality, rather than in terms of their verifiability.
