This chapter reveals the tribute paid to Iris Murdoch’s ecological worldview in her obituary. It discusses the significance of Iris Murdoch’s Wild Imagination as an entry point into a new and important strand for Murdoch studies and for ecocriticism. The chapter highlights three aspects of potential or ongoing interest that relate to this study. The first discusses Murdoch’s interest in ancient spiritual traditions but her rejection of the early work of deep ecologist Fritjof Capra in relation to Taoism. Secondly, Gillian Dooley has brought Murdoch’s interest in environmental philosophy inspired by her long-standing correspondence with Australian philosopher Brian Medlin to our attention. Murdoch’s interest in Medlin invites questions about the extent to which Murdoch’s own philosophical writings can be brought to bear on moving hearts and minds in relation to environmental concerns. Lastly, the chapter discusses ongoing work on Murdoch and non-human animals in relation to the intersection of ethics and otherness, and considers the potential for the novels to contribute further in this area. The chapter highlights the importance of the personal journals, poetry notebooks and letters that have enriched our critical understanding of Iris Murdoch and opened up new avenues for investigation
