Two hundred years before Jean Piaget did a twenty year longitudinal study of his children, Rousseau did this longitudinal study of an imaginary child. This novel is a story of how Rousseau would have raised such a child placed in his charge. As full-time governor of Emile, Rousseau begins his study, not with the intent of discovering how the boy would grow into manhood, but with the conscious intent of shaping and controlling Emile's maturation.

“The Social Contract” is one of the most important works by Rousseau. He expresses the view that in a society man has to completely rely on fellow beings with whom he is also in continuous competition. He presents the theory that people should have a right to rule themselves directly and not through representatives. Remarkable revolutionary ideas have been presented here. Thought-provoking!

Du Contrat Social: Avec une Introduction Et des Notes Explicatives (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Du Contrat Social: Avec une Introduction Et des Notes ExplicativesL'objet de cette édition est de rendre possible à tous la lecture du Contrat social et d'en faciliter l'étude aux élèves des classes de philosophie et aux candidats à la licence ou à l'agrégation L'ouvrage de Rousseau est universellement célèbre, mais fort peu lu, et en réalité fort ditlicile a lire. J'ai essayé, par un commentaire précis, d'expliquer tous les passages obscurs, de faire apparaître la suite des idées, de dégager les théories principales et d'en signaler la valeur. Dans une intro duction, j'ai tenté de résumer le système politique de Rousseau et d'en faire comprendre la formation et l'in ﬂuence. J'y ai joint une notice bibliographique, où l'on trouvera les moyens de compléter cette étude, dont je connais d'autant mieux les lacunes que j'en ai davan tage senti toute la difficulté.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
