Gravity & Grace Paperback - 1997
by Simone Weil; Arthur Wills (Translator); Introduction by Gustave Thibon
French philosopher, political activist, and religious mystic Simone Weil was little known when she died young in 1943. In 1952 this English translation of her writings accelerated her posthumous fame and influence. Written at the onset of World War II, when her health was deteriorating and her social activism was giving way to spiritual introspection, this is truly the masterwork of a master mind.

Description:
Paperback / softback. New. Simone Weil, the French philosopher, political activist, and religious mystic, was little known when she died in 1943. The aphorisms in this book reflect the religious philosophy of Weil's last years. This book shows why critics have called Weil "a great soul who might have become a saint" and "the outsider as saint, in an age of alienation".

Description:
Bison Books, 1997. Trade Paperback. A new copy. "A book of Pascalian pensees, touching on many phases of the intellectual and spiritual worlds. Written in prose which is as unadorned as a geometry theorem, it bears clear personal traces of the young genius who was half icy intellectual, half mystic."-New York Times. "In these private reflections, at once pregnant and precise, and all springing out of painful depths of experience, mental pride is transmuted into spiritual insight."-Manchester Guardian. 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 grbce 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's last years. Written at the onset of World War II, when her health was…
