Moral criticism is an approach to the literature presently discussed with a new view. Many contemporary behavioralists and authors didn't yet believe in the former dogmas (moralism and autonamism) but in the way of using art and ethics from each other. In the past, ethics is defined not based on the emotions and sensations but the speech capability. In this view, literature served the ethics. Moral topics presentation methods in past advising texts were usually directly by relying on the news or compositionsentences or referring to the words of authors. T By appearing the sentimental approaches and paying attention to the role of imagination in sympathy, relation of literature and ethics changed. Nowadays, ethics is not only a collection of composition sentences reflected in the literature, and the purpose of literature is not the promotion of ethics. Literature, narrative and fictional texts promote our recognition and awareness more than others by partial recognition and direct expression of human experiences and emotions and search in the human being, being possible through our simulation with others by the imagination. This research analyzes the moral presentation methods in 20 Persian short stories. Consideration of the different forms of moral conflicts, presentation and description of details, use of objective and subjective point of view, use of metaphor, symbol or simile and ironic situations are the most important techniques of story writing in inspiring the moral message to the audience.
