This chapter details Jean-Jacques Rousseau's letter to Marie-Jean-Antoine-Nicolas de Caritat, marquis de Condorcet, on February 16, 1770. Rousseau begins the letter by thanking Caritat for doing him the honor of sending him Caritat's esssays on analysis,
Principes de physique
. He feels that he is “worthy of them because of my sensibility, even though I am hardly so because of my intelligence, which is too limited to put me in a condition to read this work.” Rousseau then tells Caritat that he envies him “the pleasure of cultivating profound studies which lead to truths that an isolated man can tell his fellows with impunity, without having to be attached to parties and provide himself with supporters.” He says that if he were to be reborn, he would try to be Caritat's disciple, to be worthy of the honor of one day being Caritat's emulator and friend.
