So very sad, where the Iris Murdoch Archives are housed and so much excellent work undertaken over decades.

👑 On Taanit Esther, we honour Queen Esther’s courage & the strength of women facing Gett refusal.

💜 At JWA, we stand with women confronting oppression, inspired by their resilience.

'Murdoch has more to offer on the subject of politics than the woolly Platonism often projected onto her.'

This year’s Reform Judaism Kallah (retreat for clergy) was a powerful experience of collaboration, support and mutual exploration.

@Helenreflects I really liked that book and the possibilities it imagined. I loved even more the fierce independence of Marije Wartelsdochter, in another book by Thea Beckman.

It's been argued that Korach was only interested in having power for himself, that his people constantly fought with one another and that he did not just challenge Moses, he challenged God.

I voted today in the #LondonElection. As always so grateful to the suffragettes who fought for women’s votes. I cannot imagine not voting.

Our first @irismurdoch lecture of the season @chiuni is coming up next month. #AnneRowe will be looking back on the past 25 years since Murdoch's death and considering her as a major post-WW2 canonical novelist.
