Abstract

To understand rational response to ethical disagreement, we need to consider how epistemic and ethical factors interact. The notion of an ethical peer is developed, and the roles that epistemic and ethical peers play in disagreement are compared. In the light of some literary examples (short stories by Herman Melville, Flannery O’Connor and Grace Paley), the view that conciliation in response to an ethical peer can be called for, even if that peer is an epistemic inferior, is defended.
