Abstract
This study sought educational methodology of moral imagination based on the use of illness narrative literature. The research approach borrowed from Mark Johnson s empiricism ethics that our moral thinking is the product of metaphorical thinking extended from physical and environmental experiences. Through the literary text, a complex metaphor, we can see the structure and concrete specificity of actual moral experience, and participate in the present through imagination and feeling. The narrative imagination at this time contributes greatly to cultivate the moral imagination. Students recognition of events as a subject and judging values is the basis of cognitive and definitive things that fulfill the process of moral judgment when making moral decisions related to the problem of ethics. They understand moral values or rules as imaginative rationality of realistic understanding of the situation rather than simple application to the situation. This ultimately can be a moral imagination of ethical practice in consideration of self-life and the lives of others.
