I shall sail Dec. 8th Tres a vous, cherie". Ernest Dimnet (1866-1954) was
a French cleric, author and philosopher. His best known work, The Art
of Thinking (1930) invites the reader into a state of honesty where he
evaluates himself as a thoughtful human being, for humans too often only "think
of thinking" instead of actually thinking, which obstructs production of any
original thought. Dimnet is also well regarded for his books, What We Live
By (1932) and for his popular French translations of English books
written by Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Bronte. Toned. Corners creased. Worn and
soiled.. Light surface creases. Otherwise, fine condition.
