I'm reminded of Irish Murdoch and her account of an entirely internal (mental) journey into virtue, (against Ryle.)
I'm assuming Irish Murdoch exists in a possible world where we're all living in the Emerald Isle! :)

She only wrote one book explicitly about Ireland, so I don't think so. Definitely a possible world where Oxford exists :)

Doh! Missed that (and Iris was born in Dublin, so that didn't help!). Interesting discussion. Question probably hinges on effect on thinker.
