The work explores the theme of solitude, discussing its psychological effects and contrasting it with the social obligations and distractions of life. Zimmermann reflects on the tension between the need for social interaction and the deep personal insights gained through solitude, aiming to illustrate the essential nature of both states in human existence. The opening of the treatise sets the stage for an exploration of solitude, beginning with the author's personal reminiscences of his youth and the joy he found in moments of quiet reflection. It delves into the intrinsic motivations that draw individuals towards solitude, highlighting how societal pressures can lead to an aversion to being alone. Zimmermann emphasizes that solitude is not necessarily a rejection of social ties but rather a necessary escape that allows for deep contemplation and self-discovery. He presents the notion that while society can be alluring, the true satisfaction and tranquility often stem from the solace found within oneself, establishing a meaningful dialogue about the duality of human experience.
