This paper proposes to bring together Literature and Philosophy in a didactic mechanism to stimulate the practice of Philosophy through the reading and writing of stories. It is articulated (with the postulates of constructivism) around doing Philosophy, not just observing it from the outside. It starts from two premises: 1) the modern short story functions as a philosophical question, as a presenter of the great philosophical themes, but 2) it avoids the temptation of an explicit explanation, which is elided, so that it is the reader who ends up giving it a definitive form, participating in the construction of its meaning.
