Hobbes felt he was a marked man by the
circulation of his treatise and fled to Paris. He did
not return for eleven years. In Paris he rejoined
the coterie about Mersenne, and wrote a critique
of the Meditations on First Philosopy of Descartes
which was printed as third among the sets of
"Objections" appended, with "Replies" from
Descartes in 1641. A different set of remarks on
other works by Descartes succeeded only in
ending all correspondence between the two.
