Jean-Jacques: Early Life and Work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, 1712-1754.
Seller: Borkert, Schwarz und Zerfaß GbR, Berlin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Condition: Gut. Maps. 382 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Small abrasions on the dustjacket. Otherwise good and clean. - Schutzumschlag leicht berieben. Sonst gut und sauber. - An evil genius, a prophet at once of fascism and of communism, an enemy of reason and science. a mountebank, a psychotic anda freak. Such was Jean-Jacques Rousseaus reputation until his rehabilitation after the war by modern scholarship. Now that his works have at last been published and interpreted in a more disciplined manner, the way has become clear for Professor Cranston, himself a political theorist of international standing, to unravel the paradoxes of Rousseau s thought by a detailed investigation of his life. The result is a masterpiece of biography that reads like a novel, with Rousseau as its picaresque hero, an adventurer who almost miraculously transformed himself into a great philosopher. The first volume of this monumental two-volume biography traces the evolution of Rousseaus attitudes through the influence of that unique Calvinist city- state, Geneva, his refuge in Catholic Savoy, his introduction to the new scientific ideology of the French Enlightenment by Mably, Condillac, Diderot and d Alembert; it follows his erratic career through Switzerland, France and Italy, his liaison with the laundrymaid, Thérèse, his succession of frustrating office jobs and his efforts to educate himself through reading and solitary reflection; and it describes how forty years of poverty and humiliation suddenly came to an end in a blaze of fame with the publication of his Discourse on the Arts and Sciences and the performance of his opera Le Devin du Village. Professor Cranston then explores the evolution of Rousseau s ideas as a social thinker, which came to fruition in his most revolutionary work, the Discourse on the Origins of Inequality, and he concludes with an account of Rousseaus attempt to withdraw from the bright life of a celebrity in the Paris salons and return to the simple austerity of his native Geneva, a doomed endeavour to recover lost innocence, saved only by his discovery of the Deity in the spectacular landscape of the Alps.
