In this episode Miles is joined by Matt Congdon (Vanderbilt, USA), Sam Filby, (Northwestern, USA) and Francey Russell (Columbia, USA) to consider Murdoch's moral psychology. They discuss Murdoch's essay 'Vision and Choice in Morality' and 'On 'God' and 'Good''- you can find both in 'Existentialists and Mystics'. Also recommended is this article by Cora Diamond: https://www.abc.net.au/religion/cora-diamond-picture-of-the-soul-the-moral-psychology-of-iris-m/11316086 Matt Congdon is a philosopher at the University of Vanderbilt in Nashville, Tennessee specializing in ethics, social philosophy, and aesthetics. He writes about emotions, interpersonal recognition, moral change, the aesthetics of interpersonal ethical life, and the intersections of ethics and epistemology. His work on these topics has appeared in The Philosophical Quarterly, Analysis, Philosophy, The European Journal of Philosophy, Episteme, and Philosophical Topics, amongst others. His book, Moral Articulation: On the Development of New Moral Concepts appeared in November 2023 with Oxford University Press and you can hear him discussing it on a previous podcast so check that out if you’ve not already listened in. He is currently working on two new book projects: one on the aesthetic dimensions of interpersonal ethical life and one on the philosophy of Iris Murdoch. He is also working on essays on the non-propositional rationality of emotions, Iris Murdoch, and struggles for recognition. Francey Russell is Assistant Professor of philosophy at the University of Columbia, New York and works on issues in moral psychology and ethics broadly construed, often overlapping with topics in social philosophy and aesthetics, and drawing from contemporary and historical sources. She works mostly on Kant and Freud, but also Nietzsche and Cavell. She is writing a book on the concept of self-opacity and its significance for philosophical accounts of agency and moral psychology. She also writes film criticism, and is working on a project on cinematic aesthetics in genre films as well as the recent article in The Philosophical Quarterly ‘Moral Psychology as a Soul Picture’, which illuminates Murdoch thinking in this very area. Sam Filby is currently working on his PhD thesis on Murdoch at Northwestern University, Chicago. His work focuses on Murdoch’s aesthetics and – handily for this podcast – moral psychology and he’s recently presented his work at the Sorbonne in Paris and, a few weeks ago, here at the University of Chichester.
