Line is buried in many sheets of paper? It shows what actually happens (7)
I believe the answer is:
realism
'paper? it shows what actually happens' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'line is buried in many sheets' is the wordplay.
'line' becomes 'l' (used when specifying particular lines from a poem).
'buried in' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters get buried).
'many sheets' becomes 'ream' (many sheets of paper).
'l'+'is'='lis'
'lis' put within 'ream' is 'REALISM'.
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for realism that I've seen before include "Representation in an accurate and true to life way" , "19th-century French artistic movement -- mailers (anag)" , "Literal style in art" , "Non-abstract artistic style" , "Unromantic view of the world" .)
