Determine whether each quotation has the characteristics of idealism or realism.

The captain of the youth's company had been
killed in an early part of the action. His body
lay stretched out in the position of a tired man
resting, but upon his face there was an
astonished and sorrowful look, as if he thought
some friend had done him an ill turn.
The babbling man was grazed by a shot that
made the blood stream widely down his face.
He clapped both hands to his head
(from The Red Badge of Courage by
Stephen Crane)O'er the ramparts we watched, were so
gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs
bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was
still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the
brave?
(from “Star Spangled Banner” by Francis Scott
Key)Cruelty so fiendish could never have a cause,
but it cannot be denied that the torture of
Crawford was the effect of the butchery of
the Christian Indians. That awful deed was an
act of even greater wickedness, for it was the
act of men who were not savage by birth or
race or creed.
(from “The Torture of Colonel Crawford” by
William Dean Howells )

From reading these quotations, I would say that all three would be described as displaying characteristics of idealism. This is due to the fact that they all involve the placing of conceptual ideas from the speaker's point of view, such as a dead man's expression making him appear as if he has been done wrong by a friend, or the belief that a flag is of the greatest symbolic importance.
