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. Meredith Trexler Drees is the Chair of the Department of Religion andPhilosophy and the Director of Experiential Learning at Kansas Wesleyan University, USA. . 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aEthics 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics 615 0$aAesthetics. 615 0$aEthics. 615 14$aAesthetics. 615 24$aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics. 676 $a111.85 676 $a111.85 700 $aDrees$b Meredith Trexler$0967395 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495210503321 996 $aAesthetic Experience and Moral Vision in Plato, Kant, and Murdoch$92196248 997 $aUNINA
