Abstract "Springsted presents Simone Weil's thinking in some depth, looking especially carefully at her late essays and notebooks, with an eye to applying her thought to the 21st century. In many cases, her writing challenges contemporary thinking, as she challenged the thinking of her own day; in other cases, it provides direction. Springsted presents Weil as a 'polestar' (his term) to help orient our thinking in a time when the spiritual, moral, and intellectual world has become, in Charles Taylor's phrase, "flattened.""-- Provided by publisher.
