Bridge vs. Single-Region Ethical Framing
How does narrative mobility affect moral framing? This visualization compares the ethical theory distribution of bridge narratives (stories retold across 2+ regions) against single-region tales.
Key finding: Bridge tales lean more heavily on outcome-oriented cause-and-effect lessons (consequentialist framings), while virtue-centred exemplars appear less often in mobile stories. "If–then" moral logic and clear commands survive translation and performance more readily than culturally specific ideals of character.
