Jump to: navigation search Rousseau, Jean-Jacques (1712-1778): Genevan political theorist. Jean-Jacques Rousseau was the foremost political theorist of the eighteenth-century, who exerted a profound influence on the revolutionaries of France and the romantic movement. Born in Geneva as the son of a clockmaker, who was proud of his status as a burgher, Rousseau left the city as the age of sixteen. For the next decade and a half, Rousseau pursued work in a variety of fields, including music. A convert to Catholicism, he became the lover of Madame de Warren, who encouraged him to pursue his studies. At the age of 30, he set out to make his name in Paris. After briefly serving as the secretary to the French Ambassador in Venice, Rousseau settled in Paris, where he made the acquaintance of the philosophes as a regular in their salons. During this time, his focus was on a career in music, and his short opera The Village Soothsayer was actually performed at Court before the King in 1752, where it was reasonably well-received. In 1751, Rousseau wrote

Rousseau, Jean-Jacques: The Social Contract
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in The Social Contract, propounds a doctrine which already had a long history in the struggle against the older view of the divine right of kings, namely, that government gets its authority over us by a willing consent on our part, not by the authorization of God. While Rousseau's famous opening line condemns the society of his day for its limiting of our natural spontaneity (indeed, its corruption of our natural goodness), he thinks that a good government can be justified in terms of the compromise to which each of us submits so as to gain "civil liberty and the proprietorship of all he possesses." Rousseau even thinks that we mature as human beings in such a social setting, where we are not simply driven by our appetites and desires but become self-governing, self-disciplined beings. How, as Rousseau himself asks, can one enter into an agreement which limits one's power without thereby "harming his own interests and neglecting the care he owes to himself?" Subject of the First Book Man is born free; and everywhere he is in chains. One thinks himself the master of others, and still remains a greater slave than they. How did this change come about? I do not know. What can make it legitimate? That question I think I can answer.

Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) "Citizen Rousseau of Geneva", writer, musician and political theorist, penned the well-known Social Contract in 1762. While his controversial writings contributed to the Romantic Movement and allegedly inspired the French Revolution, he emerged from fairly humble beginnings. Jean Jacques Rousseau was born in Geneva, Switzerland, 28 June, 1712, the second son of Isaac Rousseau, descendant of French Huguenots, and Susanne Bernard (who died a week after he was born). Young Jeans Calvinist father went into exile when he was charged with poaching and tried to slash his accuser. Sent by his maternal uncle to a parsonage for basic religious schooling, Rousseau endured the severe straits of harsh discipline that would later form his basis of hatred towards authority. With school finished he attempted a few unsuccessful apprenticeships. The practically orphaned Rousseau (who felt he was responsible for his mothers death) spent much of his spare time alone exploring his first love, nature, which he escaped to in life as a vagabond in 1728. His wanderings led him out of Geneva to Sardinia then France, where he met Madame de Warens, who for the next ten years provided for him an education and much needed moral support and maternal love. At this time Rousseau converted to Catholicism.

Rousseau, Jean-Jacques
French (Swiss-born), 1712–1778
Rousseau never wanted to write. He had no formal education, and his consciousness of a lack of grace about his person, clothing, dress, appearance, and manners always eroded his self-confidence. He established for himself the circumstances of life which allowed him to think out as far as possible from first principles—without intellectual or social constraints from outside—the major truths about God, humanity, nature, life, art, education, love, society, and death. The focus of his interest was emotionally inspired activity of all sorts. He was aware that the results of his work were part theory, part dream, never completely coherent or even internally consistent.
Until he was 37, Rousseau had written nothing except libretti for his own music. Then, in the summer of 1749, the Dijon Academy announced a prize to be offered for an essay on the subject, “Has the progress of the arts and sciences contributed to the purification of morals?” Rousseau changed the title to include the possibility that they had contributed rather to their corruption, wrote A Discourse on the Arts and Sciences, and won the prize.
He later said that what he wrote in the first flush of inspiration was the oration of Fabricius, at the end of the first part of the published discourse, in which he laments the decadence wrought by luxury and science. The essay ends with a plea to strive for simplicity, virtue, and obedience to the inner voice of conscience.

  • ASIN: Book Description A clear, readable, and highly engrossing translation of Rousseau's masterpiece on the education and training of the young. Customer Reviews: Post-Modern Child Rearing A deceptively simple text. Rousseau has distanced himself from the Social Contract and the concept of the noble savage here, and has decided to illustrate the principles of an education that will bring about `natural man.' Emile is his guinea pig, whom he allows to grow on his own accord. His governor and nurse impose nothing on him, and he is allowed to build and explore without any external authority, eventually choosing a vocation and place in society. For Rousseau, the most important property of modern society that is inimical to man is the exertion of authority and power over the subject. Emile is allowed to grow and flourish without the arbitrary directives of parent/authority figures. And as always, Rousseau's prose is light and wonderful. He falls short in the section on Emile's counter-part Sophie, who embodies practically all of the sexist facets of enlightenment prejudice, but this remains a very great work of political theory in spite of its shortcomings and frequent meanderings.

    ROUSSEAU, Jean-Jacques (1712-78). The famous French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau gave better advice and followed it less than perhaps any other great man. Although he wrote glowingly about nature, he spent much time in crowded Paris. He praised married life and wrote wisely about the education of children, but he lived with his servant, marrying her only after 23 years, and gave up their babies. He taught hygiene, yet he lived in a stuffy garret. He preached virtue, but he was far from virtuous. Rousseau himself was unable to guide his behavior to follow his beliefs. Yet his writings on politics, literature, and education have had a profound influence on modern thought. Of French Huguenot descent, Rousseau was born in Geneva, Switzerland, on June 28, 1712. His father was a watchmaker. Young Rousseau grew up undisciplined, and at about the age of 16 he became a vagabond. In Chambery, France, he met and lived with Madame de Warens, a woman who was to influence his intellectual evolution. For a while he roamed through Switzerland, Italy, and France, earning his way as secretary, tutor, and music teacher. When he went to Paris in 1741, he was impressed by the fact that society was artificial and unfair in its organization. The society that Rousseau viewed lived by rules made by the aristocracy and had little interest in the welfare of the common man. This unknown wanderer upset that whole elaborate society. After years of thought Rousseau wrote a book on the origins of government, 'The Social Contract', stating that no laws are binding unless agreed upon by the people. This idea deeply affected French thinking, and it became one of the chief forces that brought on the French Revolution about 30 years later.
