Abstract
In this essay I propose a critical profile on the figure of the Oxonian philosopher Mary Midgley, who died in 2018. Her thought has always remained central in the debate on environmental ethics and is recently being rediscovered due of its possible applications to bioethics, environmentalism and feminism. In this profile I conduct a thematic analysis of her thought, trying to connect elements of her epistemology with some of her ethics, especially in relation to the environmentalism for which she is famous. My goal is to highlight how anti-reductionist themes and the emphasis on complexity are the unifying elements of Mary Midgley's thought and the key to understanding its relevance.
