Abstract

ABSTRACT This article explores how literary study engages readers’ moral perception and imagination. Although some philosophers discuss reading as a largely solitary activity, this article explores social practices of reading common in English language arts classrooms in secondary schools. The article shows how reading with others can change the quality of moral perception and imagination in literary study. Reading with others, the article contends, can involve an ethic focused on the good of knowing one’s ways of seeing make a difference to others. The article defends social practices of reading by arguing they can broaden and complicate students’ moral perception and imagination by making students accountable to texts, one another, and the wider world.

文学学习是一种道德感知和想象教育
摘要本文探讨了文学研究如何激发读者的道德感知和想象。尽管一些哲学家认为阅读是一种很大程度上孤立的活动,但本文探讨了中学英语语言艺术课堂上常见的阅读社会实践。这篇文章展示了与他人一起阅读如何改变文学研究中道德感知和想象的质量。文章认为,与他人一起阅读可能涉及一种伦理,这种伦理关注的是知道自己的看待方式会对他人产生影响。这篇文章为阅读的社会实践辩护,认为阅读可以让学生对文本、彼此和更广阔的世界负责,从而拓宽和复杂化学生的道德认知和想象力。
