Abstract
My Loulou, I have nothing to tell you, except that I miss you and want to see you very much. N...... I am pleased to see my old pupil devote herself to serious reading. As for my opinion on these matters, here it is in a word: I don't know what the two substantives, Matter and Spirit, mean; we don't know the one any better than the other. Perhaps they are only abstractions of our intellect. In short, I consider Materialism and Spiritualism equally impertinent. Ask Monseigneur to lend you Plato's Symposium and Phaedo, in Cousin's translation. Since you love the ideal, my Loulou, you will discover it, in these books, at its very source. As art, it's marvellous.
