Iris Murdoch and Remorse
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-43012-1 (ISBN)
This exploration of the crucially important role played by remorse in Iris Murdoch's philosophical, theological, and political thinking identifies it as a critical concept in her moral psychology and a recurrent theme in her art. Through engagement with Simone Weil, current theories of remorse, trauma theory and Holocaust studies, it offers fresh perspectives on Murdoch's fiction - particularly the late novels, her radio play The One Alone, and her monograph Heidegger.
lt;p>Frances White is Visiting Research Fellow and Deputy Director of the Iris Murdoch Research Centre at the University of Chichester, editor of the Iris Murdoch Review and co-editor of the Iris Murdoch Today series. Her publications include Becoming Iris Murdoch (2014).
