Overview

Rousseau considered Émile, or Treatise on Education, the “best and most important of all my writings.” The book builds on The Social Contract, establishing a theory of education that would allow Rousseau’s “natural man” to remain good in the face of a society that is inherently corrupt and corrupting. The book follows the life of Émile as he grows and learns from his tutor.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (28 June 1712 – 2 July 1778) was a major Genevan philosopher, writer, and composer of 18th-century Romanticism. His political philosophy heavily influenced the French Revolution, as well as the overall development of modern political, sociological and educational thought. His novel, Émile: or, On Education is a seminal treatise on the education of the whole person for citizenship.
