FLEURY Maurice de [Bordeaux, 1860 - Paris, 1931], French physician, man of letters and historian historian of Medicine. Autograph letter signed, addressed to the journalist Henri Bidou. Paris, January 7, 1931; 2 pages in-4 with the letterhead of the Maison Velpeau where he was hospitalized (he will die in April). Beautiful letter on Nietzsche. "I am waiting at the clinic on the rue de la Chaise for the moment that Marien considers suitable for the operation. And I read read your beautiful article on Nietzsche in Sils-Maria - Here is something to think about - and what to do in a bed unless unless you think about it. Yes, yes, this Zarethustra is a great book, one of the most eloquent of man, and truly, by verbal power, on the borders of the superman." There follows a long development on Nietzche and Nietzschism, and another on the evolution of the man and the Cyclothymie dédoublée of Fleury.
