Metaphor and Moral Experience

A. E. Denham examines the ways in which our engagement with literary art, and metaphorical discourse in particular, informs our moral beliefs. She considers to what extent moral and metaphorical discourses are capable of truth or falsehood, warrant or justification, and how it is that we understand these discourses. Metaphor and Moral Experience offers a fresh view of the nature of the moral and the metaphorical, and the relations between art and morality.
