Abstract

The aim of this article is basically to show the literary point of view on ethics education. To do so, the author propose an ethics education based on the knowledge of the uncertain, that is to say, the educational practice as the openess to the never ending transformation, an ambigous transformation, without absolute trues or untemporary ones. The literary point of view, the knowledge of the uncertain is an unavoidable of any ethics education because it defuges from any dogmatism and complete certainities and it opnes to contingency and to ambiguity.
