The talk scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday, April 9, 'The moral thought of Iris Murdoch' belonging to the Cartagena Piensa program, is postponed due to the impossibility of the rapporteur, María Gila Moreno.
The talk, which was to take place at 8:00 p.m. in the Josefina Soria Library of the Ramón Alonso Luzzy Cultural Center, is then pending to confirm date soon.
The talk will discuss how, in the face of the dominant currents of the time, Iris Murdoch defended in her philosophical writings the existence of the Good as a transcendent reality that is at the same time the ideal limit and guide for morality.
Taking this idea as a reference, the author considered that the human being is able to carry out throughout his life a process of moral improvement not exempt from difficulties and in which the attention to the reality in which it manifests is fundamental. That same Good to which we should aspire.
The talk is part of the program 'Cartagena Piensa', prepared by the Department of Culture of the City of Cartagena, and particularly within its cycle 'Philosophy and cinema', in collaboration with the Department of Philosophy of the University of Murcia, for which is also scheduled the screening of the film 'Iris' (United Kingdom, 2011) and which will celebrate the centenary of the birth of the Irish author, one of the most influential philosophers and writers of the twentieth century.
