Simone Weil, the French philosopher, political activist, and religious mystic, was little known when she died young in 1943. Four years later the philosopher-farmer Gustave Thibon compiled La pesanteur et la gr 226 ce from the notebooks she left in his keeping. In 1952 this English translation accelerated the fame and influence of Simone Weil. The striking aphorisms in Gravity and Grace reflect the religious philosophy of Weil 8217 s last years. Written at the onset of World War II, when her health was deteriorating and her left-wing social activism was giving way to spiritual introspection, this masterwork makes clear why critics have called Simone Weil a great soul who might have become a saint and the Outsider as saint, in an age of alienation.

Description :
Simone Weil, the French philosopher, political activist, and religious mystic,
was little known when she died young in 1943. Four years later the
philosopher-farmer Gustave Thibon compiled La pesanteur et la gr 226 ce
from the notebooks she left in his keeping. In 1952 this English translation
accelerated the fame and influence of Simone Weil. The striking aphorisms in
Gravity and Grace reflect the religious philosophy of Weil 8217 s last years.
Written at the onset of World War II, when her health was deteriorating and her
left-wing social activism was giving way to spiritual introspection, this
masterwork makes clear why critics have called Simone Weil a great soul who
might have become a saint and the Outsider as saint, in an age of alienation.
