Reviews

""This volume correlates two figures of the early twentieth-century renowned for their rigour, genius, precocity, and the purity of their quests – betraying a certain saintliness. Intellectual fascination with Weil and Wittgenstein never seems to flag for a reason. In an era with few spiritual beacons, both manifested in their lives and thought the essence of religious authenticity. Bringing the two together helps each to stand forth in uncompromising individuality all the more sharply."" Lissa McCullough, California State University Dominguez Hills, USA
