Simone's influence on Iris Murdoch

In Rowe and Osborn's  article "The Saint and the Hero: Iris Murdoch and Simone Weil" published in Irish Murdoch,  Philosopher Meets Novelist. Eds. Araújo, Sofia de Melo and Fátima Vieria. New Castle upon Tyne: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2011. 103-13, the authors note that while  there is much mention of Weil's influence on Murdoch, "few explore it in any sustained way".  The one major study referenced is the one by Griffin,  but I have a found a number of works focussing on Weil and Murdoch including the following:
