Summary
Thank you for the direct communication of your doubts concerning the latter half of my previous letter, or more precisely, concerning the elucidation of the materialism and spiritualism of the ancients that I attempted there and whose grounds I, admittedly, have not so much developed as merely indicated.
The reply to your objections lies so little outside the path that I have struck upon with you in my history of the psychological concept of reason that, rather than merely sparing me the danger of perhaps continuing on this path presently without your company, this reply will take us both a considerable distance further along it.
