Abstract
Abstract:I agree with Rafe McGregor's overall intuition regarding the ethical dimension of narratives, and I wholeheartedly applaud his endeavors to support the humanities via his particular methodology. However, there are several issues where we disagree, and I develop these in my commentary. Primarily, I challenge the epistemic framework underlying his theory, his account on the phenomenology of literary engagements, and, what I see as the most problematic aspect of his theory, the openness to the possibility of moral corruption via art. I end by raising some considerations regarding the practical implementation of his theory into our culture.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Aesthetic Education (JAE) is a highly respected interdisciplinary journal that focuses on clarifying the issues of aesthetic education understood in its most extensive meaning. The journal thus welcomes articles on philosophical aesthetics and education, to problem areas in education critical to arts and humanities at all institutional levels; to an understanding of the aesthetic import of the new communications media and environmental aesthetics; and to an understanding of the aesthetic character of humanistic disciplines. The journal is a valuable resource not only to educators, but also to philosophers, art critics and art historians.
