This article is devoted to the correspondence between Descartes and Princess Elizabeth. In the first part the author presents and analyzes the passages about guilt (the sense of sinfulness, regret, remorse, contempt for oneself). Attention is drawn to Descartes' reluctance to undergo feelings of guilt and to convince the Princess that the experience of guilt is necessary for man. The second part presents some of the remarks of Edmund Husserl on the philosophy of Descartes and the possibility of experiencing the sense of reality, contained in the book: "The Crisis ...". The author highlights some parallels between the statements of Husserl and Princess Elizabeth. These similarities lead him to believe that Princess Elizabeth was aware that the removal of the experience of guilt prevents a person from experiencing the sense of reality. The author argues for the hypothesis that feelings of guilt are a condition of experiencing the sense of reality.
