Education of a Philosopher in the Doctor’s House
The adopted stable boy Jean-Marie assists in care and study under the doctor who writes a vast historical medical dictionary. The doctor favors literary hues over science, while Madame keeps house, sleeps lightly, and maintains a calm, indulgent presence. Jean-Marie remains quiet, moral, and largely distant from the doctor's family life.
