Synopsis
Widely considered the first modern autobiography, the Confessions influenced memoirs, fiction, poetry, and philosophy in addition to establishing the author as a leader of the Romantic movement. Rousseau's focus on childhood experiences anticipated Freudian psychology, and his opposition to inequality and emphasis on individual worth constituted a major contribution to progressive social and political thought.

One of the most influential and controversial of the Enlightenment thinkers, he inspired the leaders of the French Revolution and bridged the transition from 18th-century reason to 19th-century romanticism.
