The presumption that there was direct contact between de Staël and Saint-
Simon is based upon the testimony of his disciples, but is not corroborated

it is known that Saint-Simon spent time in Geneva, where Madame de Staël
had relocated her Parisian salon after falling out with Bonaparte. See Dondo,
French Faust
, 99-102.
