Moral lesson: Perceiving Literary Values

Literature is an important means of world making, of


making sense of our lives and of reflecting, reinforcing
but also constructing the norms and values we live by.
While the ‘ethical turn’ in the study of culture drew new
attention to the ethical dimension of literature, the
complex and reciprocal relationship between literature
and values still needs to be examined in detail. The
present volume explores the role of literature and other
media in the representation, dissemination and generation
or construction of values.

Do not do foolish things with your life for your life is
