- This monograph shows how Murdoch’s exploration of philosophy, politics and literature is guided by her notion of modernity. Its intricate arguments are based upon a reading of Murdoch ‘s extensive published and unpublished writings. It considers Murdoch’s 26 novels, her major published philosophical texts on Sartre, art, metaphysics and moral philosophy, her plays and dialogues as well as her poetry and occasional sociological and political essays, and a considerable body of unpublished material; letters, journals, manuscripts, annotated books and notes and jottings. Archives were consulted at the University of Kingston, the Bodleian and St. Anne’s College.
