Popis: The aim of this article is to show how Mercedes Salisachs’ works may be included among those that Martha Nussbaum considers moral philosophy allies because they allow the inquiry into issues that are also the subject of practical philosophy. Taking as reference the Nussbaum ethic-literary project, we explore in Salisachs’ works how the thematic content of the histories and the way plots are displayed challenge the reader who, immersed in the experience of the characters, can reflect on the horizon of what is human in personal life and in public life.
