PDF-(BOOK)-The Company We Keep: An Ethics of Fiction

In The Company We Keep Wayne C Booth argues for the relocation of ethics to the center of our engagement with literatureBut the questions he asks are not confined to morality Returning ethics to its root sense Booth proposes that the ethical critic will be interested in any effect on the ethos the total character or quality of tellers and listeners Ethical criticism will risk talking about the quality of this particular encounter with this particular work Yet it will give up the old hope for definitive judgments of good work and bad Rather it will be a conversation about many kinds of personal and social goods that fictions can serve or destroy While not ignoring the consequences for conduct of engaging with powerful stories it will attend to that more immediate topic What happens to us as we read Who am I during the hours of reading or listening What is the quality of the life I lead in the company of these wouldbe friendsThrough a wide variety of periods and genres and scores of particular works Booth pursues various metaphors for such engagements friendship with books the exchange of gifts the colonizing of worlds the constitution of commonwealths He concludes with extended explorations of the ethical powers and potential dangers of works by Rabelais D H Lawrence Jane Austen and Mark Twain.
