Long before postmodern or deconstructionist ideas became current,
Simone Weil was concerned with recognizing the absence of
consistency and the continual presence of reversals and
contradictions in life. She was someone for whom the task of
clarifying her perceptions of reality and meaning was an ongoing
one. She challenged contemporary views on such complex issues as
human nature, good and evil, divinity and truth. Weil's work offers
a voice for those segments of society that are generally
under-represented, misrepresented or totally silent in conventional
historical and philosophical writings. In this introduction to
Simone Weil's ideas, and the political and intellectual
circumstances of her work, the authors make Weil's complex and at
times elusive ideas accessible to readers. They delineate how her
ideas evolved, and provide compelling excerpts from her writings to
let her speak for herself. In addition, the authors provide their
own interpretation of Weil's work.
