  1. Hello:
    I am pleased to see this here; thanks for posting it. I have, additionally, done another conference paper about Canadian poetry concerning Simone Weil: "What is not self: Jan Zwicky, Simone Weil and the Resonance of Decreation." I presented the paper at a the joint session of the Association of Canadian College and University Teachers of English and the Canadian Philosophical Association during Congress 2011 in Fredericton, NB.
