A provocative essay that challenged the superiority of civilized society and modern government, Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Discourse on the Origin and Foundations of Inequality made him an outcast among fellow Enlightenment thinkers but stands today as one of the most important political texts in Western history. Helena Rosenblatt's new translation, introduction, and selection of related documents help students comprehend why Rousseau's criticisms of human nature, political hierarchy, and private property were so controversial in his time yet later were hailed as a foundation of democracy. The introduction explores life experiences that shaped Rousseau's philosophy, explains contemporary ideas about political authority and social order, and guides students through Rousseau's thought, including explanations of how his work anticipated theories about evolution and inspired leaders of the French Revolution. Related primary documents - including a selection from Rousseau's Social Contract - situate Rousseau's ideas in contemporary political and social thought. Questions for consideration, a chronology of Rousseau's life and work, and a selected bibliography enrich students' understanding of the man and his times.

評分1749年夏,卢梭去巴黎郊外万森堡监狱探望被捕的狄德罗,路上偶见第戎学院征文公告——“科学和艺术的进步到底是腐蚀了道德,还是促进了道德?” 仿佛一道强光,卢梭浑身战栗、大汗淋漓、如梦方醒,仿佛突然窥见了另一个世界。 这一刻,改变了他的一生。 从此,卢梭坚定地站在了...
評分如果我看完第一部分就弃了,那么最多最多给3分。。现在全都看完了包括作者附注,看在卢梭独特视角的份上,打4分吧。。 卢梭关于原始状态和野蛮人的假设实在太让人诟病,受到那么多指责真是一点也不冤。他在最开始说作者附注部分可看可不看,没什么关系,而实际上...
