Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. «Desde 1914 la guerra no se ha apartado nunca de mi pensamiento», escribió Simone Weil en una de sus últimas cartas. Pacifista convencida, Weil vivió en la guerra civil española la experiencia de la barbarie, tal como narrará en su carta a Georges Bernanos. Posteriormente, elaboró esa vivencia en su lectura del poema épico fundacional de Occidente en torno a la guerra de Troya: la Ilíada. Traduciendo y comentando los versos de la Ilíada, Simone Weil pone de manifiesto la acción de la fuerza que somete tanto a vencedores como a vencidos. Entre los resquicios del imperio de la fuerza, sin embargo, trasparece de forma casi milagrosa la gracia. En esos instantes inusitados de luz se concentra la enseñanza del poema homérico: la compasión por la fragilidad humana, una piedad capaz de no sucumbir a la fascinación de la fuerza.

Softcover. Condizione: New. 4a.ed. 230x145 mm. Colección Estructuras y Procesos. Biblioteca Simone Weil. 212 p., Rústica con solapas. Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. Desde 1934 hasta su muerte, Simone Weil acostumbró a apuntar en sus Cahiers ideas y reflexiones que serían núcleo de sus numerosos ensayos. La gravedad y la gracia es una antología de estos escritos: textos desnudos y carentes de ardides que traducen una experiencia interior de una autenticidad y exigencia poco comunes. Simone Weil es la mayor pensadora del amor y la desgracia de nuestro siglo. En su pensamiento, luz y gravedad son los dos imperios que rigen la realidad del hombre; pero, ya que toda desgracia del hombre no es sino el efecto del despliegue de una fuerza, aparecen inseparablemente enlazados dos conceptos capitales en la filosofía weiliana: desgracia y fuerza. A lo largo de su breve existencia, Simone Weil trató de desentrañar el grado y los modos de la participación de la gracia divina en el mundo, así como el punto de intersección de la misma con las leyes que lo dominan. Toda su vida anduvo buscando ese momento del encuentro entre la perfección divina y la desgracia de los hombres. La gracia, si bien no puede evitar los efectos de la «gravedad» y la fuerza, sí logra que esa subordinación a la aplastante necesidad. a la pura impotencia, no corrompa el alma.

In 1942, whilst living in New York, Simone Weil wrote an extended letter to a priest which contained "35 expressions of opinion on matters concerning Catholic faith, dogma, and institutions" (blurb). She hoped for a response in which the priest would categorically judge whether each of her statements were compatible with her reception into the Catholic church. It is believed Weil never received such a response. …
