She was described by T. S. Eliot as "a woman of genius, of a kind of genius akin to that of the saints," and by Albert Camus as "the only great spirit of our time." Originally published posthumously in two volumes, these newly reissued notebooks, are among the very few unedited personal writings of Weil's that still survive today. Containing her thoughts on art, love, science, God and the meaning of life, they give context and meaning to Weil's famous works, revealing a unique philosophy in development and offering a rare private glimpse of her singular personality.</P> 313642 2 3 1956 The Notebooks of Simone Weil total:12|5:7|4:3|3:2| 12 53 21 1 0 0 false false Wed Oct 15 09:55:41 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 15 09:56:20 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Oct 18 08:37:15 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 18 08:37:15 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Oct 03 19:06:26 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 03 19:06:26 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 09:11:34 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 09:11:34 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Aug 16 20:29:19 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 16 20:29:19 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Jul 10 02:50:04 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 10 02:50:04 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Jul 06 09:13:20 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 06 09:13:29 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri May 22 08:49:43 -0700 2009 Fri May 22 08:49:43 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue May 19 18:35:44 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 18:35:44 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Mar 19 23:59:51 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 19 23:59:53 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Feb 22 14:03:45 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 22 14:03:50 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Jan 19 10:20:47 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 19 10:20:47 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Wed Jan 14 12:58:06 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 14 12:58:06 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Dec 25 08:21:14 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 25 08:21:17 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sat Sep 27 19:19:27 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 27 19:19:27 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Jul 06 18:19:39 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 06 18:19:39 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Mon May 26 14:30:01 -0700 2008 Mon May 26 14:30:01 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Apr 22 19:49:53 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 22 19:50:02 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Jan 10 18:40:03 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 10 18:40:07 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Thu Aug 30 13:01:44 -0700 2007 Thu Aug 30 13:01:44 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=322933
