SIMONE WEIL IN QUEST OF AUTHENTICITY,
By
This review is from: Simone Weil: A Life (Paperback)
Simone Petrement
Simone Weil: A Life translated by Raymond Rosenthal (New York: Pantheon, 1977) (New York: Pantheon, 1978; paperback) 577 pages (New York : Schocken Books, 1988) (ISBN: 0805208623) A biography of Simone Weil--philosopher, teacher, writer, activist. Her life was a political and religious search: She supported the trade-union movement in France, even working for a while in factories. She tried to fight against fascism in Spain and France. And she starved herself to death in an English sanitarium, in exile from Nazi-occupied France. She was 34. Whatever might be said about her purposes and her methods, she was clearly an engaged person in quest of Authenticity. To read about other lives in quest of greater autonomy, search the Internet for: "Authenticity Bibliography". James Leonard Park, existential philosopher
