ERNEST DIMNET
The twentieth-century French philosopher writes friendly note to friend, signs name in black ink
Autograph Letter signed: "Ernest Dimnet" in black ink. 1 page, folded to 5¼x6½. On personal letterhead. 300 Park Avenue, New York City, New York. No date. In full: "Sunday night, My Dear Friend, No sooner had Talcott left me than I found this tucked up in my pockets. Will you give it to Marguerite? A Mardi! ['til Tuesday!] Such a joy to see you so soon. Affectionately yours.". 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. The ink has run slightly at spots, not at signature. Slightly toned and creased. Overall, fine condition.
