The Confessions of Jean Jacques Rousseau V1 is an autobiographical work by the famous philosopher, Jean-Jacques Rousseau. In this book, Rousseau recounts his life experiences, including his childhood, education, and relationships with family and friends. He discusses his struggles with poverty, his love affairs, and his philosophical beliefs. Rousseau also reflects on his role in society and his contributions to the Enlightenment movement. The book is written in a confessional style, with Rousseau being open and honest about his flaws and mistakes. It provides a unique insight into the life and mind of one of the most influential thinkers of the 18th century.1923. Translated from the French. With a preface by Edmund Wilson. Rousseau, philosopher and Father of the Romantic Movement, The Confessions is his landmark autobiography. Both brilliant and flawed, it is nonetheless beautifully written and remains one of the most moving human documents in all of literature. In this work, Rousseau frankly and sincerely settles accounts with himself in an effort to project his true image to the world. In so doing he reveals the details of a man who paid little regard to accepted morality and social conventions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
