Serious thread.

Is it Moral to write good pieces that scare others? Note that the feeling of fear is the most conducive to one's potential felt experience of disembodied ideas' agency and power. An ignorant Materialist or philistine might find his Other too intense and close the door for good.

Maybe this is why there is no good Horror Literature. Anyone receptive enough to receive ideas that could yield such writings knows better than to do so.

The thread is not about Joyce or Farts so I have to trigger /lit/ a bit to get enough people in here for a good discussion.

Just so I know what we're taking about here, could you give some examples of how you view the morality of existing works/oeuvres?

Eg:
- Homeric epic
- Shakespeare's plays (split into comedy and tragedy if you feel it makes a difference)
- Don Quixote
- Jane Austen's novels
- Moby Dick
- Ulysses

If you could give us a moral assessment of the above then I feel like we'd know better how to respond appropriately.

So you don't want people to get spooked?
