Mein Lebenswelt :: A Brotherhood of Suffering

I will look into this pdf by Mohammad Maroof Shah (Rajbagh Colony, Nagbal, Ganderbal, Kashmir 191201, India).   

Beckett’s extremely influential Waiting for Godot has
been much heard and commented upon but there has
been paid only relatively little attention to another master
piece Waiting on God by his contemporary which
challenges and moves beyond the impasse in Beckettian
depressing or nihilistic work. Simone Weil, one of the
most significant names in the history of modern
mysticism and mystical philosophy, has dealt with the
unique problems that modern man faces vis-à-vis his
faith. Weil encounters similar problems that occupy
absurdist writers but her response and conclusions are
very different. In this paper it is proposed to compare and
contrast Beckett and Weil to show how transcendence as
it figures in Weil’s mysticism dissolves the problems
associated with nihilism in modern thought that plague
Beckett’s depressing work. Robert Cohen has read
Godot as a “dramatic companion-piece” to Simone Weil’s
Waiting for God, without, however, the postulation of
faith.
