Iris Murdoch was not only one of post-war Britain's most celebrated
and prolific novelists - she was also an influential philosopher,
whose work was concerned with the question of the good and how we
can see our moral worlds more clearly. Murdoch believed that paying
attention to art is a way for us to become less self-centred, and
this book argues that cinema is the perfect form of art to enable
us to do this. Bringing together Murdoch's moral philosophy and
contemporary cinema to build a dialogue about vision, ethics and
love, author Lucy Bolton encourages us to view cinema as a way of
studying other worlds and moral journeys, and to reflect upon their
ethical significance in the world of the film and in our daily
lives.
