Shonda Buchanan weaves a prism of language, sound and light around and through the life of concert pianist, singer and Civil Rights activist, the incomprehensible Nina Simone. With this book, Buchanan is declaring this The Century of the Black Woman, providing a realistic glimpse into not only Simone's life, but the lives of Black women in America, past and present, and their choices in a myopic, unforgiving country. A grandchild of enslaved Africans, American Indians and Irish migrants, born into poverty as Eunice Waymon in a traditionally large family, Nina Simone lived a life few Black American women lived during the Jim Crow era in the South, yet rose to ultimately impact the world with her creative genius and determined spirit. This book is both an emotional and historical excavation of an artist's life, capturing the rise and descent of that life, including Simone's family history, her childhood and young womanhood, as well as the addiction, mental health struggles and abuse. The Lost Songs of Nina Simone embodies the rich legacy --- the pleats between the cloth --- of Simone's artistry, beauty, self-immolation and rage.

Freedom and Recognition in the Work of Simone de Beauvoir
This book offers a detailed analysis of Beauvoir’s concepts of freedom and recognition concerning their impact on a philosophy of gender. It demonstrates that Beauvoir is much more than a simple equality feminist and that she posed questions that are at the center of contemporary feminist research. It shows that Beauvoir’s existentialist approach must be taken seriously in that it provides a fundamental instrument for the interpretation of gender relations. On the basis of her work the conflicts are revealed that arise when modern emancipation theories and post-modern deconstructivism clash. By investigating these conflicting tendencies the thesis is elaborated that Beauvoirs’s work can be seen as a pivot between modern and post-modern discourse.

Simone Weil (1909-1943) teve uma exist ncia profundamente marcada pelo sentimento de compartilhamento diante do sofrimento alheio. Sobremaneira, este sentimento a vinculou ao cristianismo como um dom nio onde se encontra um horizonte de sentido para a experi ncia dilacerante do sofrimento, al m de um exemplo de que poss vel desempenhar um ato de compaix o mesmo em meio ao extremo desenraizamento da vida. Motivada por esta refer ncia, configurou uma cr tica severa s formas de segrega o e opress o existentes nas religi es institucionalizadas, o que se desmembra como um tema rico e instigante em suas reflex es.

Simone Weil (1909-1943) lebte ein Leben, das zutiefst von dem Gef hl gepr gt war, am Leiden der anderen teilzuhaben. Dieses Gef hl verband sie vor allem mit dem Christentum als einem Bereich, in dem man einen Sinnhorizont f r die herzzerrei ende Erfahrung des Leidens finden kann, sowie ein Beispiel daf r, dass es m glich ist, auch inmitten der extremen Wurzellosigkeit des Lebens einen Akt des Mitgef hls zu vollziehen. Durch diesen Bezug motiviert, hat sie eine scharfe Kritik an den Formen der Segregation und Unterdr ckung in den institutionalisierten Religionen formuliert, die in ihren berlegungen als ein reiches und anregendes Thema auftaucht.

Simone Weil (1909-1943) lived an existence deeply marked by the feeling of sharing in the suffering of others. Above all, this feeling linked her to Christianity as a domain where one can find a horizon of meaning for the heartbreaking experience of suffering, as well as an example that it is possible to perform an act of compassion even in the midst of the extreme rootlessness of life. Motivated by this reference, she has shaped a severe critique of the forms of segregation and oppression that exist in institutionalised religions, which emerges as a rich and thought-provoking theme in her reflections.

Simone Weil (1909-1943) ha vissuto un'esistenza profondamente segnata dal sentimento di partecipazione alla sofferenza degli altri. Soprattutto, questo sentimento la legava al cristianesimo come ambito in cui trovare un orizzonte di senso per l'esperienza straziante della sofferenza, nonch come esempio che possibile compiere un atto di compassione anche in mezzo all'estrema mancanza di radici della vita. Motivata da questo riferimento, l'autrice ha dato forma a una critica severa delle forme di segregazione e oppressione esistenti nelle religioni istituzionalizzate, che emerge come tema ricco e stimolante nelle sue riflessioni.

Subaltern 1-2(2022) Våld och under : Simone Weil om det moderna krigets natur
"Allting börjar i mystik och slutar i politik" - Charles Péguy "Vi är glömska", skrev Simone Weil 1939, "och bland mycket annat har vi glömt vilken fruktan som ordet Ryssland ingav för bara några år sedan i det man kallar borgerliga kretsar. Då var det Ryssland som förväntades erövra världen. Man talade inte om erövring, man talade om världsrevolution."Weil lyfte fram Sovjetunionen och den kommunistiska drömmen om en världsrevolution för att finna en analogi till Hitlers Tyskland. Bägge imperierna sökte världsherravälde och för Weil, som tre år tidigare deltagit i det spanska inbördeskriget på anarkisternas sida, innebar världskriget att de bräckliga demokratierna riskerade att dras in i en konflikt som bara kunde ha förintelsen som mål. Innehåller följande texter av Simone Weil: Reflektioner över kriget, Dagbok från Spanien, Fragment, Svar på en fråga från Alain, Lås oss inte starta det trojanska kriget igen, Obekväma reflektioner, Brev till Gaston Bergery, Reflektioner inför ett bokslut, Reflektioner över barbariet, Några reflektioner över hitlerismens ursprung, Reflektioner över upproret.Subaltern nr 1-2:2022.
