Rousseau And The Sentimentalists is a book written by James Russell Lowell, which explores the philosophical and literary movement of Sentimentalism and its relationship with the ideas of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The book delves into the works of various authors, including Laurence Sterne, Oliver Goldsmith, and Henry Mackenzie, to demonstrate how their writing embodies the themes of sentimentality, sensibility, and emotional authenticity that were central to the Sentimentalist movement. Lowell also analyzes the influence of Rousseau's ideas on this literary movement, particularly his emphasis on the importance of individual feeling and the rejection of artificial social conventions. Through his examination of this literary and philosophical movement, Lowell provides a fascinating insight into the cultural and intellectual climate of the late 18th century.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Among My Books, by James Russell Lowell.
