Answer:

-Middle and lower class.

-Everyday language

-Focus on characters instead of plot

-No authors voice (mostly)

Explanation:

Realism refers to a time period in arts, influenced of course, by the sociopolitical situation of the times. It affected several forms of art (sculpture, painting, literature...). It went from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. In literature, it was characterized because of a change of focus. The plot became secondary and there was a bigger focus on characters. There was a shift in the type of characters as well, they were now mainly lower and middle class and spoke the regular everyday language instead of the more poetic language previously used. And in this period, the author's voice in the text was almost always quiet.
