Literature and Moral Theory investigates how literature, in the
past 30 years, has been used as a means for transforming the
Anglo-American moral philosophical landscape, which until recently
was dominated by certain ways of "doing theory". It illuminates the
unity of the overall agenda of the ethics/literature discussion in
Anglo-American moral philosophy today, the affinities and
differences between the separate strands discernible in the
discussion, and the relationship of the ethics/literature
discussion to other (complexly overlapping) trends in late-20th
century Anglo-American moral philosophy: neo-Aristotelianism,
post-Wittgensteinian ethics, particularism and anti-theory. It
shows why contemporary philosophers have felt the need for
literature, how they have come to use it for their own
(philosophically radical) purposes of understanding and argument,
and thus how this turn toward literature can be used for the
benefit of a moral philosophy which is alive to the varieties of
lived morality.
