And in both Ethics in the Conflicts of Modernity and After Virtue, MacIntyre points to Sartre’s La Nausée as an example of a novel whose primary import is precisely to undermine the points about narrative MacIntyre is keen to stress.13 Nor will it do to advance the familiar argument that novels (or fictions generally, including short stories, films, etc.) serve well in an introductory capacity for ethics and other philosophy subjects, since they are accessible entry points.	cache/expositions-2526.pdf	txt/expositions-2526.txt
