Fictionalism, at least in its most practical and applied version, focusing on literature, is a tool widely credited by the philosophical tradition, and possibly also credited for all those readers of novels or theater viewers, who apart the aesthetic pleasure or fun that they get have found in the literature a chance of an anthropological and moral questioning. It is simply to exploit the education potentiality of fictionalism and stimulating intellectual dynamics made possible by the experience of literature. Literature is a privileged setting of creative (artistic and philosophical) to present the facts and all human moral characteristics. And of course, if we specify it in this paper, the teacher and the student can go to the literature to find literary materials where to find ethical competences to work preferably in each faculty.References
