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.
