The term “idealist” has been used in literature with a rich variety of connotations, often reflecting both admiration and critique. In some works, it describes a person with lofty internal convictions who may avoid facing harsh realities, as seen in Nietzsche’s critique of self-knowledge ([1], [2]), while in others it is almost a label for someone pursuing impractical dreams or revolutionary ideals, as in Dostoyevsky’s or Chekhov’s portrayals ([3], [4]). At times, the idealist is depicted as a purveyor of refined moral or philosophical thought—sometimes even in a self-aware or ironic tone, as Fitzgerald’s characters demonstrate ([5], [6], [7]). Meanwhile, classical texts like those of Plato and Kant discuss the idealist in relation to broader societal or philosophical transactions, suggesting both creative brilliance and potential for transformation or brutality ([8], [9], [10], [11]). This multifaceted use highlights the enduring complexity of the idealist figure in literature, embodying both hope and the inherent contradictions of human aspiration.
