Summary
The author concludes that Colette’s novels address important moral questions. She bases her claim on the fact that each of Colette’s novels is a poetic condensation of a major emotional crisis of an ordinary person, and that these crises almost always raise important moral questions.
Notable Assumptions
This can be a tricky question, as the author makes several subtle assumptions:
(1) A poetic condensation of a moral crisis is still able to address that crisis. Something may get lost in translation, so we must assume this condensed form is still able to address it.
(2) Emotional crises almost always raise important moral questions, but we don’t know if Colette’s books are the exception. We must assume her books actually do raise these questions.
(3) If the above assumptions are true and Colette’s books raise important moral questions, we must assume the books are not indifferent to them. It’s possible to raise a moral question without caring about it, so the author must assume this to be true.
