Simone Weil's LA PESANTEUR ET LA GRACE again

Simone Weil's  LA PESANTEUR ET LA GRACE  again

TANAKA Akio

Simone Weil's  LA PESANTEUR ET LA GRACE, Japanese translated edition has been published in March 2017.

What I first knew her name  was probably  in the high school days. The book was the simple biography.
After entering the university, I first totally read this book that gave me the deep impact on life and belief.
In the same time I read Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus which also  affected me great influence thinking of language.

Simone Weil taught me the importance of verticality, gravity downwards and grace upwards.
And now I have been newly taught algebra's holizontality.

She keeps on asking me " To where do you go ?  With what do you take?"
For the present I will go to universality and take with algebra.
But the road is far ahead or very high above, probably in eternal gravity.
