Abstract: Ethical Literary Criticism asserts that the ultimate purpose of literary education is ethical instruction, which is consistent with the goal of the integrated curricula of ideology and politics at the institutions of high education. Ethical Literary Criticism has successfully constructed a self-contained theory of literary criticism and a discourse system with Chinese characteristics. Based on its interdisciplinary, open, and uniquely Chinese approaches, it may serve as a theoretical guide not only in constructing the liberal arts education with distinctive Chinese features, but also in developing and perfecting a complete theoretical framework for literary education. Using the ethical instruction of literature as the goal of the integrated curricula of ideology and politics, as proposed by Ethical Literary Criticism, foreign literature education may adopt the pedagogy of in-depth teaching, emphasize the importance of ethical choice in teaching critical thinking, guide students to explore the moral value of literary works, and cultivate their aesthetics tastes, their cross-cultural experiences, and their ability to think dialectically and generatively. While imparting the knowledge about literature, the practice of foreign literature education, guided by the theory of Ethical Literary Criticism, should put an emphasis on fostering students' political identity, cultural literacy, and moral cultivation on the one hand and, on the other, playing an important role in their value orientation and cultural leadership.
