授業の内容や構成
Course Content / Plan
The course is an introduction to the work of Iris Murdoch, focusing on one of her novels, The Time of the Angels. Themes that we will engage with include reading Murdoch in terms of her use of symbolism and intertextual allusion, including references to William Blake. I will present some of my own research on Murdoch, shortly to be published in the chapter. “‘These fragments I have shored against my ruins’: poetry, multiplicity and Being-towards-Death in The Time of the Angels and A Word Child” in the collection Reading Love with Iris Murdoch, edited by Rossitsa Terzieva-Artemis. We will also explore the relationship between Murdoch’s novels and the socio-political context in which they were written, their relationship with psycho-analysis and with the question of Murdoch’s moral philosophy as expressed in The Sovereignty of Good and Metaphysics as a Guide to Morals.

It is recommended for students to read the set text before the class and to make a note of any points which they wish to be clarified and questions which they would like to discuss. For a brief introduction to Murdoch, see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_Murdoch
Optional extra reading: any other novel by Iris Murdoch – see list of complete works on the Wikipedia page (shorter novels include Under the Net, The Bell, A Severed Head, The Italian Girl and An Unofficial Rose).
Also familiarise yourself as much as possible with The New Testament and read as much as you can of William Blake’s poetry so that you can recognise the allusions Murdoch makes to Blake.
