The question is quite easy to answer because the
author herself answred it for us in the intro to
volume 1. She quotes Montaigne and says in effect
that there was NOTHING original in the SD except for
the string which held the material together. Meaning
the selection and synthesis and arrangement of the
material was hers and naught else was. It is by
studying the method of selecting and synthesizing the
material in the book that we get at the underlying
system of ideas she was trying to promote.
