This a reply to Dan Clouser's philosophical commentary on the essays in this issue. Important assumption that has condition his perspective on the essays are indentified and analyzed. Attention is drawn to his unhistorical emphasis on the exclusive importance of philosophy in ethical thought, and his resulting insistence that any discipline wishing to contribute to biomedical discourse must adopt the assumptions and methodologies of philosophy. Clouser's "three tenets" are examined, and then question of what literature, considered in terms of its own aims and methodologies, has to offer to medical ethics. Genuine dialogue about medical ethics between philosophers and literary scholars is both desirable and important, but becomes possible only if the methods and insight of each discipline are honored in the pursuit of the overall golas they hold in common.
