This philosophical romance called by Lord Morley 'one of the seminal books' and by others 'the child's charter, ' has a new introduction by Andre Coutet de Monvel, Professor of French Literature, Institut Francais du Royaume-Uni. The work 'has been the inspirational source of every great educational reformer since the eighteenth century, ' says Proffesor Boutet de Monvel but its influence has extended far beyond the confines of education, and its effect upon the ideas of several generations has covered a much wider sphere. Emile became indeed one of the major textbooks of the French Evolution and of European Romanticism, and Mirabeau ranked it among the masterpieces of the age.
