Spiritual naturalism
Coming into prominence as a writer during the 1870s , Huysmans quickly established himself among a rising group of writers , the so-called Naturalist school , of whom Émile Zola was the acknowledged head . . . With Là-bas ( 1891 ) , a novel which reflected the aesthetics of the spiritualist revival and the contemporary interest in the occult , Huysmans formulated for the first time an aesthetic theory which sought to synthesize the mundane and the transcendent: "spiritual Naturalism" .
