Annotation |
Walsh's work on Simone Weil, constitutes only a small but important part of her dissertation on interpretations of Antigone in the modern period. She offers a thoughtful and informed reflection on Weil's writing about the play, setting Weil's work within its historical context and comparing it to other interpretations. Walsh's discussion would be of interest to anyone researching Weil's work on the play. |
