Resumen
Literature has an outmost importance in the ethical training of a more humane world’s future citizens. It pervades the whole literary work and affects both author and reader. Thus literature gains moral relevance not only due to its own content and formal expression, but also because, in an active manner, it involves the reader as a social agent. The inner moral value of literature belongs to a full thinking and reading-tradition which springs up from the very origins of western literature in Greece and which has been a subject of reflections from a large number of thinkers through ah time. To such an extent the moral influence of literature is determinant upon the reader that the content of the literary work comes to prevail over the expressive form. M. Nussbaum points out that another feature of the novel- and we add, of literature- is its capacity to please. But we do not need to go back to Plato to make him an authorized evidence of the, in the least neglectable, moral link of literature.
