First Paperback Edition. Large 8vo. pp 539. Paperback. Original publishers cream covers, lettered black. Publications de l'Universite de Dijon, 30. Text in French. 1750 is the year of the competition for the Academy of Dijon, where Rousseau determined in his speech on the sciences and the arts, "if the reestablishment of the sciences and the arts has contributed to purifying the walls". He concludes that the sciences and the arts distance men from virtue, and only corrupt morals. Rousseau values ignorance and virtuous credulity rather than hypothetical and practiced knowledge. This work takes up the proceedings of the study days of 1962 during the commemoration of the second centenary of the Social Contract. It studies three questions: the sources of Rousseau's political thought; aspects of his political thought in the Social Contract; and compares the social contract and European political thought from 1762 to the 20th century. The purpose of this volume is to lead the reader to a more adequate understanding of Rousseau and his work. Very good.…
