Zusammenfassung:
'Screen Stories and Moral Understanding' considers the place of movies, streamed series, and television in the lives of viewers, paying particular attention to their role in leading to moral rumination and learning. The book considers how screen stories can transfer knowledge and cultivate sensibilities and responses. It shows how the affective responses of viewers and viewers' psychological relationships with fictional characters figure into the influence of narrative. It also describes the means by which institutions encourage and direct reflection on screen stories after the viewing has ended.
