Simone Weil, auteur notamment de "La Condition ouvrière" et "L'Enracinement", née à Paris le 3 février 1909, philosophe, professeur et résistante, morte en Angleterre le 24 août 1943. Elle est reconnue comme l'une des plus grandes figures du mysticisme chrétien.
A new translation of Simone Weil's best-known work: a political, philosophical and spiritual treatise on what human life could be
What do humans require to be truly nourished? Simone Weil, one of the foremost philosophers of the last century, envisaged us all as being bound by unconditional, eternal obligations towards every other human being. In The Need for Roots, her most famous work, she argued that our greatest need was to be rooted: in a community, a place, a shared past and collective future hopes. Written for the Free French movement while she was exiled in London during the Second World War, Weil's visionary combination of philosophy, politics and mysticism is her answer to the question of what life without occupation - and oppression - might be.
