===First wave of socialist realism and Agrarianism===
As in the Nāɂahilūmi era, literature (and all arts) of the early Kaiṣamā show a dualism between works following the official ideology and nonconformism. The official ideology of the Kaiṣamā idealized a socialist realism style: the very first works are concerned with a communist reconstruction of the world after the war (a view pervasive in what is acclaimed as possibly the greatest socialist realist masterpiece, the 6330 novel ''Naijukah''<ref>The ''naijukah'', in Chlouvānem fairytales, is a magical "phoenix lizard" that resurrects itself one lunar cycle after it is killed.</ref> by Lairyāvi Hunipaira ''Lālašvāti'', later acclaimed as a pioneer work of modern fairytale realism, a current that would bloom in the post-Kaiṣamā era) often emphasizing the unity of the Kaiṣamā not under communism but under the Yunyalīlti faith, explaining communism – as still common today in the Inquisition – as being basically a form of "liturgy-less Yunyalīlti practice", the first step towards conversion of heretics.<br/>

Later socialist realism was almost a return to industrial-era works, more concerned with praising the technological advances and the wonders of modernity, though often with distinctively communist themes.

A distinct current that arose out of socialist realism but cemented itself as its antagonist is Agrarianism (''chlæcāminædani''). Born out of the early socialist realist novel ''Ṣṭrāṣpire tīppa'' (Robust Wheat), the debut work of the previously mentioned Žahalŭni Büdikürbey, published in 6331, agrarianism took the rural dimension of having contact with nature and taking care of the environment and used it in a sentimental way, sometimes nostalgic for an earlier, purer, pre-Industrial past. Agrarianist thinkers typically thought that communism and modernism were undeniably good, but there could be no peace if people didn't come back in contact with the natural world, denouncing a quasi-heresy of society that was straying away from these values. This proved to be an important political stance, religiously conservative overall but becoming the driving force for a further modernization of industry by leading research towards environmental-friendlier alternatives to the processes used at the time. Agrarianist literature's main expression was the field song (''jāṇalija''), a light ghazal-like piece of poetry (often particularly influenced by far older styles such as Yūraħāṇi poetry) with a particular detail on impressionist descriptions of nature, especially during twilight; love is sometimes mixed therein, but is often secondary.<br/>The most notable agrarianist author, Myąrlenīnāvi Sumarinārų ''Hælahaika'', actually held a high-profile work, having been professor of Exploration Age Literature at the Ecumenical School of Nyamukuma (Mbekalunda diocese, Far West) from 6321 to 6343. Among novels, the most widely praised one is ''Ñaryāsūrṇa'' (Mountain Hut) by Yālvadṛni writer Vælvāvi Kulatitairās ''Kāljivaṃṣān''<ref>Born Vælvāvi Ṣaramuhaidī ''Kāljivaṃṣān''.</ref>.
