"Jean-Jacques Rousseau" by Jules Lemaître is a biographical analysis written in the early 20th century. This work aims to explore the life and sentiments of the influential philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, highlighting the intricacies of his character and the impact of his ideas on modern literature and society. The focus is not only on Rousseau's philosophical contributions but also on his personal struggles, including his emotional conflicts and tumultuous relationships. The opening of the book reveals Lemaître's intent to study Rousseau through the lens of his autobiographical writings, particularly his "Confessions." Lemaître reflects on his initial enthusiasm for Rousseau, contrasting it with a more critical perspective informed by the ramifications of Rousseau's ideas in subsequent history. He sets out to provide an analysis that intertwines Rousseau's personal narrative with his literary output, emphasizing the philosopher's unique subjectivity and the candidness of his confessions. The text introduces Rousseau's childhood and formative years, sketching a portrait of a sensitive and imaginative young man caught in the complexities of his social and emotional environment, ultimately foreshadowing the profound influence he would wield over literature and societal thought.
