Dinet (See Theo Verbeek, Descartes and the Dutch, esp. Ch. 1 - 3) and the "Septièmes Objections et de leurs Réponses": Van Otegem, Bibl. Descartes, vol. .....: DSB IV, pp. 51 - 65: Tchemerzine IV, p. 292, d: Serrurier, Descartes. Leer en Leven (1930), pp. 77 - 100: During the year 1640 Descartes worked on his 2nd important book, which gave a much more extensive survey of his system than the "Discours", viz. the 'Meditationes de prima philosophia'. It was an elaboration of a philosophical treatise which he already wrote in Franeker in 1629. The manuscript was sent to Regius and Aemilius of the Utrecht University, also to Johan de Kater and in November 1640, through the offices of Huygens, to his friend Mersenne, who would try and obtain a privilege from the Sorbonne. Mersenne on his turn obtained comments from Thomas Hobbes, Antoine Arnauld and Pierre Gassendi. A first Latin ed. appeared in 1641, a 2nd Latin edition appeared in 1642, published in Amsterdam by Louis Elzevier and revised by Descartes himself. This second edition was supplemented with a 7th refutation from Father Bourdin [our copy pp. 605 - 754] and contained the letter to Father Dinet [our copy pp. 555 - 604]. This edition was the basis for the translations into French, of which the first one appeared in 1647 under supervision of Descartes, the translators being The Duke of Luynes and Clerselier. As a result the French translation is more reliable and , preferred over the Latin one (edited by Mersenne, containing mistakes in the text and even deleting a few pages at the end of Descartes' answer to the 4th refutation on the Eucharist).: Theo Verbeek, Descartes and the Dutch, i.l.c: DSB IV, p. 52: '[Descartes'] ... investigation into the true ontology led him to the radical division of created existence into matter as simply extended substance, given motion at the creation, and mind as unextended thinking substance. This conclusion he held to be guaranteed by the perfection of God, who would not deceive true reason. How these two mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive categories of substance could have any interaction in the embodied soul that was a man was a question discussed by Gassendi, Hobbes, and Descartes in the "Objections and Replies" published with his "Meditations on First Philosophy" in 1641.': With the publication of the meditations Cartesianism as a doctrine was founded. A very good copy.
