Özet:
The principal aim of this dissertation is to revisit and reconsider the concept of love and the place of love in cognitivist, axiological, and realist moral philosopher Iris Murdoch. In my dissertation, love comes to the foreground because I reclaim it in the face of the void, insofar as Murdoch sees the most poignant problem in the modern and late modern world as clinging to the self permeated within three forms of false consolations: egoism, false understanding of God, and fantasized illusions.
