Narrative Ethics Criticism is that the criticism studies to the narrative ethics in literary works. Narrative ethics, as the name suggests, is the ethics in narrating. Although ethics criticism in the past is also to take ethics in literary works as main object of study, but Narrative Ethics Criticism is unlike Ethics Criticism in the past. Ethics Criticism in the past depends on ethic and rational sense in the real society as yardstick and instructional ideas, ignores fabulosity and individuality in narrating. But Narrative Ethics Criticism points to the inside of the literature and respects literature self's characteristics, and looks for problems of particular life ethics and society's ethics concept inside of work and being involved in work vicinity in the contrary or accordance of fabricating ethics and real ethics. Code of ethics and real ethics is one consults only , one being decisive judges a standard no longer in here.

The narrative ethics and the realistic ethics resistance is not must be separated from the reality, but is must be clearer faces the reality, more is only the question.
