Explains Weil's Roots,
By Mike Jacobs (Southeast Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Simone Weil: A Modern Pilgrimage (SkyLight Lives) (Paperback)
This is an essential Weil book for the beginner. It's always useful to understand a philosopher's roots, and this book does not disappoint. Afterward I had much more appreciation for Weil's brilliance as well as her mental dysfunction. I came away with the sense that she was an unfinished work; that her philosophy up until her death was not yet mature. What insights she might have more completely developed had she lived! Re-reading her words now, I have a good sense of perspective on what influenced her thoughts and decisions.
