SIMONE WEIL (1909-1943) was a French philosopher, mystic, and political activist. Albert Camus described her as "the only great spirit of our times." Intellectually precocious, Weil expressed social awareness from an early age. At five she refused sugar because the French soldiers at the front during World War I had none, and at six she was quoting the French dramatic poet Jean Racine. In 1919, at 10 years of age, she declared herself a Bolshevik. In addition to studies in philosophy, classical philology, and science, Weil embarked on new learning projects as the need arose. She taught philosophy in several girls’ schools during the 1930s, taking several breaks due to poor health and to devote herself to political activism, including assisting in the trade union movement, taking the side of the Anarchists in the Spanish Civil War, and spending more than a year working as a labourer so she could better understand the working class. Taking a path that was unusual among twentieth-century left-leaning intellectuals, Weil became more religious and inclined towards mysticism as her life progressed. Though born of Jewish parents and raised in a secular household, she eventually adopted a mystical theology that came very close to Roman Catholicism, although she did not limit her curiosity to Christianity. She was keenly interested in other religious traditions and believed that they all contained elements of genuine revelation. A moral idealist committed to a vision of social justice, Weil in her writings explored her own religious life while also analyzing the individual’s relation with the state and God, the spiritual shortcomings of modern industrial society, and the horrors of totalitarianism. Weil's most famous works were published posthumously, the most important being GRAVITY AND GRACE (1947), a collection of religious essays and aphorisms; THE NEED FOR ROOTS (1949), an essay upon the obligations of the individual and the state; WAITING FOR GOD (1950), a spiritual autobiography, here presented in two translations; OPPRESSION AND LIBERTY (1955), a collection of political and philosophical essays on war, factory work, language, and other topics; and the volumes of her NOTEBOOKS (1951-56).
