Sažetak

The Irish women Iris Murdoch (1919–1999), a famous Oxford philosopher and award-winning author, published in her book Acastos (1987), two Platonic dialogues: »Art and Eros«, which premiered in 1980, and also »Above the Gods«. The themes were her customary subjects of beauty, goodness, truth and faith. In the dialogues, Socrates and Platon make an appearance, as well as several fictional characters, one of whom is Acastos.
Murdoch’s Acastos, whom we shall call Acastos I., sublimates a modernized version of Plato.
Acastos II. we shall describe as a more radical version of a modernized Plato. Petrić’s excursions into moral problems and problems in ethics are compared and located with regard to Plato, neoplatonism, and both Acastos. Further comparison are of interest, given the contrast between traditionalist individual ethics (virtues theory) and the most recent directions of contemporary applied ethics.
