Descartes didn't distinguish between humans and
machines or organic world and inorganic world.
When his daughter died at the age of five,
he found a doll that looked just like her.
He named her Francine and doted on her.

I tried reading Locus Solus but my english wasn't up to it. Do you have a pdf of the Bellmer one. I'm super into him.
