Aesthetic Experience and Moral Vision in Plato, Kant, and Murdoch - Looking Good/Being Good (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021): Meredith... Aesthetic Experience and Moral Vision in Plato, Kant, and Murdoch - Looking Good/Being Good (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021)
Meredith Trexler Drees
R3,274 Discovery Miles 32 740 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book addresses how Plato, Kant, and Iris Murdoch (each in different ways) view the connection aesthetic experience has to morality. While offering an examination of Iris Murdoch's philosophy, it analyses deeply the suggestive links (as well as essential distinctions) between Plato's and Kant's philosophies. Meredith Trexler Drees considers not only Iris Murdoch's concept of unselfing, but also its relationship with Kant's view of Achtung and Plato's view of Eros. In addition, Trexler Drees suggests an extended, and partially amended, version of Murdoch's view, arguing that it is more compatible with a religious way of life than Murdoch herself realized. This leads to an expansion of the overall argument to include Kant's affirmation of religion as an area of life that can be improved through Plato's and Murdoch's vision of how being good and being beautiful can be part of the same life-task.
