Questioning Greece with Heidegger and Simone Weil

By Maria Villela-Petit

In this book a long-time student of phenomenology and of Greek art and philosophy stages a "loving quarrel" between two daring thinkers who loved Greece but had diametrically opposed interpretations of its legacy. Maria Villela-Petit brings out unsuspected strengths in Simone Weil's readings of Homer, Plato, and Greek Tragedy and unsuspected weaknesses in Heidegger's historical construction and the tradition of German philhellenism which shaped it.
