Abstract

The article examines the creative path of two great American realist writers of the 20th century - Theodore Dreiser and Jack London. A comparison is made of their philosophical ideas, namely the continuity of Nietzscheanism and positivism. The unanimous debunking of the “American Dream” in the works of both authors is explained. Similarities are found in the life path of the main characters of the works “The Trilogy of Desire” and “Martin Eden”, Frank Cowper wood and Martin Eden, respectively. Arguments are given to identify the connection between the works of Dreiser and London
