3.2 Analysis
Guide Questions:
1. What are the things that you must consider in critiquing literature?
2. What is the relevance of Moralist Approach in critiquing literature?
3.3 Abstraction
o A moralistic literary approach focuses individuals, couples, families, and

professionals on a moralistic definition of relationship, life, and family processes
that presumes a moral ascendancy of one value system over others.
o Moralist Criticism is a type of literary critique that judges the value of the
literature based on its moral lessons or ethical teachings. It is also an approach
used to judge literary works according to moral rather than formal principles.
Literature that is ethically sound and encourages virtue is praised while literature
that misguides and corrupts is condemned.
o What are the principles of a moralist literary approach?
1. Morality can be a body of standards or principles derived from a code of
conduct from a particular philosophy, religion or culture, or it can be derived from
a standard that a person believes should be universal. Morality may also be
specifically synonymous with "goodness" or "rightness".
2. Quality of human acts by which we call them right or wrong, good or evil.
( Panizo, 1964)
3. Human action is right when it conforms with the norm, rule or law of morality.
o What are the considerations in writing a moralist criticism?
1.This approach stresses the close reading of the text with sensitivity to the words
and their various meanings.
2.It searches for structures, patterns, imagery and motifs, and figurative language
along with the juxtaposition (the fact of two things being seen or placed close
together with contrasting effect) of scenes, tone, and other literary techniques in
order to come to conclusions about the meaning of the work and insists that all
statements about the work be supported by references to the text.
3.Philosophical (or moral) criticism evaluates the ethical content of literary works.
However, these critics evaluate the work in its totality, not passages taken out of
context.
