Because the Industrialization and the Darwinism had destroyed all belief of Hardy's times, he believed that there was nothing that did not change in the world. Owing to this reason, the view of life which his poems and novels contained, he said, was really a series of fugitive impressions which he had never tried to co-ordinate. Thus, his poems and Jude the Obscure consisted of the "unadjusted impressions" of different characters. If a persistent change was one of the important principles in his times, such a change would be the reality which Hardy wanted to represent. Levine define that realism exists as a process, responsive to the changing nature of reality as the culture understood it. If we agree to Levine's opinion, we may say that he is a realist. Because he intended to find persistent wandering impressions in his changing times, he didn't present any resolution to and judgement on the problems of his own times. So his poems and Jude the Obscure can be valued Hardy's own effort that allowed his unadjusted and personal impressions about the atmosphere of his ages to have a shape and unity of their own.
