"Feukir had told me that I might have the pleasure to see you, I am leaving
town Tuesday morning and I am glad indeed to have heard from you before it was
too late. You will give me great pleasure if you will come here for a cup of tea
Monday the 7th about 5:30, even later if unfortunately you happened to be
engage. Very sincerely 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. Slightly toned. Corners rounded.
Light surface creases. Slightly soiled. Otherwise, fine
condition.
