Confessions of J. J. Rousseau
by Jean-Jacques Rousseau
This
FREE eBook focuses on leading personages and transactions of a
momentous epoch, when absolutism and feudalism were rallying for their
last struggle against the modern spirit, chiefly represented by
Voltaire, the Encyclopedias, and Rousseau himself—a struggle to which,
after many fierce intestine quarrels and sanguinary wars throughout
Europe and America, has succeeded the prevalence of those more tolerant
and rational principles by which the statesmen of our own day are
actuated.
