Iris Murdoch was one of the best-known philosophers and novelists
of the post-war period. In this book, Sabina Lovibond explores the
tangled issue of Murdoch's stance towards gender and feminism,
drawing upon the evidence of her fiction, philosophy, and other
public statements. As well as analysing Murdoch's own attitudes,
Iris Murdoch, Gender and Philosophy is also a critical enquiry into
the way we picture intellectual, and especially philosophical,
activity. Appealing to the idea of a 'social imaginary' within
which Murdoch's work is located, Lovibond examines the sense of
incongruity or dissonance that may still affect our image of a
woman philosopher, even where egalitarian views officially hold
sway. The first thorough exploration of Murdoch and gender, Iris
Murdoch, Gender and Philosophy is a fresh contribution to debates
in feminist philosophy and gender studies, and essential reading
for anyone interested in Murdoch's literary and philosophical
writing.
