    Naturalism and Romanticism

    Explanation:

    Romanticism was a movement that made emphasis on intense emotion as a source of creation and value.

    The character of Peyton Farquhar is elevated by the emotionality he generates (romanticism), to be considered a gentleman.

    Naturalism is the worldview based on detachment, and determinism is usually associated as the opposite of romanticism.

    Despite his characterization and beliefs, our protagonist, Peyton presents us with a naturalist interaction with the world around him in the text, with a strong, determinist, direct reaction to problems.

    It is interesting that this character relates to these two contrasting movements, depending on his convenience and the situations he is in.
