The Social Contract & Discourses: Translated With Introduction By G. D. H. Cole, Edited By Ernest Rhys This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born on June 28, 1712, in Geneva, Switzerland, and passed away on July 2, 1778, in Ermenonville, France. He was a prominent philosopher, writer, and composer whose works significantly impacted political, educational, and social thought during the Age of Enlightenment. Rousseau's writings influenced the development of modern political, economic, and educational ideas and played a key role in the intellectual groundwork for the French Revolution. His works, such as "The Social Contract" and "Emile," challenged traditional structures of society, advocating for the importance of individual freedom, equality, and natural human rights. Rousseau s philosophy also explored the impact of civilization on human nature, critiquing how societal progress often corrupts the inherent goodness of people. His ideas greatly influenced thinkers like Immanuel Kant and Adam Smith. Throughout his life, Rousseau was shaped by the ideas of other great philosophers such as Ren Descartes, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, and Samuel von Pufendorf. He married Th r se Levasseur in 1768, with whom he spent the latter part of his life.
