Simone Weil: Waiting for God

  • St.John's College (map)

Simone Weil philosophized at thresholds and across borders. Her persistent desire for truth and justice led her to elite academies and to factory floors, to political praxis and into spiritual solitude. At different times she was an activist, a pacifist, a militant, a mystic, and an exile. Throughout it all, in her inquiry into reality and her orientation to the good, she remained in the deepest sense a philosopher: a lover of truth.
