Prezentowany tom jest pierwszym w Polsce tak bogatym zbiorem jej esejów filozoficznych, dotyczących głównie etyki i metafizyki, a zwłaszcza ich związków z literaturą. Myśl Iris Murdoch - krytyczna synteza platonizmu z wątkami egzystencjalnymi - wyróżnia się racjonalnością, logiczną precyzją, celnością argumentu i dbałością o szczegół. Ogromna erudycja i przenikliwość diagnoz sprawiają,...

The Sovereignty of Good
ISBN: 9780415253994 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.
