    摘要、提要註: This largely chronological study of Iris Murdoch's literary life begins with the youthful idealism of her fledgling publications at Badminton School and Oxford which are the precursors of the uncompromising intelligence and exuberance of her early novels. After assessing the significance her Irish heritage to her work, the novels of the next four decades are explored with attention to biographical background; social, political and cultural influences; her thematic preoccupations and experiments with form, in particular her engagement with the visual arts. The study concludes by assessing not only the serious critical analysis given to her work since her death in 1999, but also the damage done to her reputation by the more sensational media attention given to her private life.
