{"product_id":"routledge-companion-to-simone-weil","title":"Routledge Companion to Simone Weil","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe remarkable life and work of the French philosopher and activist Simone Weil has fascinated scholars from many disciplines, with no less than Albert Camus calling her the \"only great spirit of our times\". Although contemporaneous with the rise of existentialism and educated alongside contemporaries such as Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the creative and restless nature of Weil's thought set her apart. Equally adept at thinking across politics, philosophy, theology, ethics, literature, and science, Weil stands distinct in the canon of twentieth-century Western thought as a highly unique and controversial figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Routledge Companion to Simone Weil\u003c\/i\u003e is an outstanding survey of her thought.
