Annotatsiya

This paper analyzes Somerset Maugham’s The Moon and Sixpence through
the dual lens of realism and existentialism, focusing on the protagonist’s pursuit of absolute
freedom as an artist. The novel’s realist foundation captures the tangible world of bourgeois
morality and social convention, while its existential undercurrents reveal a man’s rebellion
against that very structure.
