| Beschreibung: | |
| This essay considers two of Iris Murdoch's novels, The Black Prince (1973) and The Sea, the Sea (1978), and argues that the representation of objects in both offers us manifold interpretative possibilities, and a new approach to some of Murdoch's most significant ideas. It examines how the relationship between the subject and the object in her fiction is negotiated, and how objects inform her theories of character, contingency, and forgiveness, and suggests that in these two novels the way in which the self exists among objects eventually constitutes its own construction and definition. | |
