Abstract: Theories of “behind realism” and “ahead of realism” of the realist literature and art are tit-for-tat, but it is hard to comment which is right. The phenomenon is not recognized by all or is not “objective fact” proved by practice. Thus, all the ideas and theories about the literature and art cannot be regarded as truth and scientific “recognition” based on the objective facts, but are a kind of “advocate” of some notions originating in certain subjective standpoint. In a word, there exists no literary and artistic science which is applicable everywhere, but there does only the theory of literature and art about or for a certain group of people of a certain time.

Key words: realism, Theory of literature &, art, value theory
