Realism. (1). Any form of belief which is chary of speculation and rooted in fact. In this sense Christianity claims to be realistic.
(2). The philosophical doctrine of the reality of the external world as against the idealistic view that it is constituted by consciousness.
(3). In a more technical sense the doctrine that abstract concepts (
‘universals’) have a real existence apart from the individuals (‘particulars’) in which they are embodied. This was developed in the Middle Ages on the basis of
Plato's metaphysic and opposed by
Nominalism.
