“I beg you to tell me what has become of Djamila”: The Political Mobilization of Simone de Beauvoir’s Readers During the Boupacha Affair
No full textBy Sophia Millman This is a condensed version of a Masters thesis dedicated to the political mobilization of Simone de Beauvoir’s readers. The citations from the letters were translated from French by the author. *** On June 2, 1960, the French government ordered all copies of the daily Algiers edition of Le Monde seized and destroyed to suppress the publication of Simone de Beauvoir’s article “Pour Djamila Boupacha.” Beauvoir, a self-professed “woman of letters”, not “of action[1]”, and one ..
A comparative study of form and theology in the works of Flannery O'Connor and Simone Weil
No full textIn this comparative study of the form and theology of Flannery O'Connor and Simone Weil I interrogate how Weil's philosophical writings and her theology illuminate O'Connor's use of both narrative and non-fictional forms, and her Catholicism. The Introduction analyses how Weil's concept of superposed reading provides a new method of approaching both O'Connor, her writings, and O'Connor
studies, and focuses on how such apparently different women interconnect. Chapter One explores how both Weil and O'Connor attempt to write their theologies on the
souls of their readers yet are each subject to constraints imposed by form. Weil's concept of locating equilibrium between incommensurates is discussed, and her
distinctively philosophical approach to fictions and fictionality is used to investigate O'Connor's notion of prophetic fictions and the writer's role. Chapter Two assesses how both writers revivify Christian paradoxes. Weil's monstrous concept of affiiction, and O'Connor's use of the grotesque genre to jolt secular man into an
awareness of the sacred are scrutinised. Chapter Three studies how both writers consider an encounter between God and man is possible through the action of grace. My Conclusion interrogates how Weil's work can deepen our understanding of O'Connor's writings, and examines how successful O'Connor is at realising a truly
Christian literature. I conclude that despite being a writer of powerful fictions, O'Connor can not be totally successful in her mission as writer-prophet because
ultimately fiction escapes orthodoxy
Le romanesque dans un récit de deuil. <i>Une mort très douce</i> de Simone de Beauvoir
No full textInternational audienceLe romanesque peut-il s’inviter dans un récit de deuil ? Cet article analyse, sous l’angle du romanesque, Une mort très douce, récit autobiographique que Simone de Beauvoir a consacré à la mort de sa mère. Ce récit repose effectivement sur une forme de tension narrative. De même, l’auteur parvient à faire de sa mère un véritable personnage, qui accède à une voix dont elle a toujours été privée. Mais l’analogie avec le romanesque achoppe sur la portée morale du récit

“The Workers Know Everything”: Attention, Necessity and Politics in Simone Weil
No full textEste trabajo se enmarca en el proyecto de investigación “La contemporaneidad clásica y su dislocación: de Weber a Foucault” (PID2020-
113413RB-C31).El presente artículo tiene como objetivo poner de relieve la relación entre trabajo y política en la obra de la filósofa francesa Simone Weil. Con este fin, en la primera parte del texto se analizarán las raíces filosóficas de la reflexión weiliana acerca del trabajo; posteriormente, se profundizará en la crítica del trabajo alienado de la gran industria contemporánea; finalmente, se examinarán los términos de esa síntesis entre trabajo manual y trabajo intelectual que la autora busca en la noción de atención. De esta manera, se demostrará cómo este último aspecto, uno de los rasgos más originales de la reflexión de Weil, permite a su obra seguir dialogando con el pensamiento político contemporáneoThe aim of this article is to highlight the relationship between labor and politics in the work of the French philosopher Simone Weil. To this end, in the first part of the text I will analyze the philosophical roots of Weil’s reflection on labor; second, I will delve into the critique of alienated labor in contemporary industry; finally, I will examine the synthesis between manual and intellectual labor that the author seeks in the notion of attention. In this way, I will show how this last aspect, one of the most original features of Weil’s reflection, allows her work to continue an effective dialogue with contemporary political thoughtDepto. de Filosofía y SociedadFac. de FilosofíaTRUEpu

O starenju u delu Simone de Bovoar
No full textConsiderations of old age and ageing are not the central part of the work of Simone de Beauvoir. However, fragmentary mentions of these topics in her memoirs, and especially her two-volume book The Coming of Age, make Simone de Beauvoir an author whose approach to the topics makes an important contribution to multidisciplinary research and understanding of old age and ageing. A strong voice of protest she raised back in 1970 against mal-treatment of elderly by the society, can be an impetus for activism in the area of the protection of human rights even today. Namely, her work on ageing is a kind of a manifesto and a call for total participation of elderly in the society. Primary intention of this paper is to point out to those Simone de Beauvoir's considerations on the topics that could be relevant for the social policy field, as well as to her arguments underlying the considerations. Having in mind her explanations of the vulnerable position of elderly in general, the paper has two-fold focus. On the one hand, basic assumptions of her approach to ageing in general are taken into account, along with the meanings the society attributes to ageing. On the other hand, certain challenges are taken into account, such as transition from childhood into adulthood and old age, revelation of one's own old age, sex as an old age determinant and changes in the world of work of importance for the changed position of elderly.U razmatranjima Simone de Bovoar, starost i starenje nemaju centralno mesto. Međutim, fragmentarni stavovi o ovim temama u njenim memoarskim knjigama, a neuporedivo više dvotomno delo Starost, svrstavaju je u autore čiji pristupi predstavljaju važan doprinos multidisciplinarnom proučavanju i promišljanju u ovoj oblasti. Snažan glas negodovanja koji je ona još 1970. godine podigla protiv lošeg tretmana starijih od strane društava, mogao bi imati potencijal za aktivizam u sferi zaštite ljudskih prava starijih i danas. Na taj način, njeni napisi o starosti predstavljaju svojevrstan pamflet i poziv za punu participaciju starijih u društvu. Osnovna namera u ovom radu je da se ukaže na razmatranja Simone de Bovoar koja se nalaze u sferi interesovanja socijalne politike i na argumentaciju koja se nalazi u osnovi tih razmatranja. S obzirom na važnost njenih objašnjenja vulnerabilnog položaja starijih uopšteno, rad ima dvostruki fokus. S jedne strane, razmatraju se najvažniji fragmenti pristupa starosti de Bovoar uopšteno, odnosno značenja koja se pridaju starenju u društvu. S druge strane, razmatraju se teme tranzicije iz detinjstva u zrelost i starost, otkrivanja sopstvene starosti, pola kao determinante starenja, te promena u sferi rada koje su uticale na promenu položaja starijih
