After the incident, he inherited fortune of his family and ably lived the rest in relative leisure, which enabled him to devote a great deal of time.

Se la lettura è interessante e lo stile affascinante (anche se non poco ostico) e se qua e là ci sono intuizioni vere ancora oggi, per altre purtroppo si sente l'impostazione idealistica (quando non ideologica) con considerazioni che appaiono oggi francamente superate. Testo comunque stimolante.
