This is the first bilingual edition of Weil's 1939, 25-page war essay, the first based on the text of Weil's Oeuvres complètes and the first to provide citations for passages quoted from the Illiad . Weil defines force as "that which makes a thing of whoever submits to it. Exercised to the extreme, it makes the human being a thing quite literally, that is, a dead body." Contains extensive commentary. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
