Abstract

Background As a peculiar epistemological procedure to understand and represent world facts, literature has constantly imparted major contributions to human knowledge. Literature’ s epistemological effects bear on both cognitive and affective measures; however, its emotional functioning is more remarkable. Fiction resorts to mimesis on readers’ mind in developing such moral emotions as empathy, sympathy and compassion in order to build up an emotional balance through discharging adverse emotions. The educational consequences of Fiction are in line with affective approach to ethics, according to which avoiding the break between moral judgment and moral act relies on the emotional perception of self and others’ feelings and beliefs, as well as the nature of intergroup social relations. Moral behavior grounded on emotive knowledge is called emotional-oriented morality in this article, which attempts to explain the role of emotions in directing people toward moral virtue and to assess the epistemological effects of Fiction in that regard. Conclusion The effective involvement of Fiction as a tool for moral goodness, in a cultural setting demands psychological and sociological scrutiny. Children’ s literature and translated literature are two critical areas of effect due to their acute emotive impacts on readers. Provided that the cultural qualities of the affective system dominating the target community are taken into account, Fiction can play a significant role in the development of emotion-oriented morality by building a rich and balanced repertoire of familiar and common emotion on the one hand, and complex and emergent emotions on the other.
