Venice Saved Weil Simone
Towards the end of her life, the French philosopher and mystic Simone Weil (1909-43) was working on a tragedy, Venice Saved. A figure of affliction, a central theme in Weil's religious metaphysics, the central character offers a unique insight into Weil's broader philosophical interest in truth and justice, and provides a fresh perspective on the wider conception of tragedy itself.The play depicts the plot by a group of Spanish mercenaries to sack Venice in 1618 and how it fails when one conspirator, Jaffier, betrays them to the Venetian authorities, because he feels compassion for the city's beauty.The edition includes notes on the play by the translators as well as introductory material on: the life of Weil; the genesis and purport of the play; Weil Appearing here in English for the first time, this play explores the realisation of Weil's own thoughts on tragedy.
