Emile - Jean Jacques Rousseau - Bog

Emile by Jean Jacques Rousseau is a philosophical novel that explores the nature of education and the development of human nature. The book is written as a fictional account of the education of a young boy named Emile, who is raised in a natural setting away from the corrupting influences of society. Rousseau uses Emile's education to argue for a new approach to education that emphasizes individual development and the cultivation of natural virtues, rather than the rote memorization of facts and the imposition of societal norms. The book covers a range of topics, including child development, the role of the family in education, the dangers of society, and the importance of freedom and self-determination. Emile is considered a classic work of educational philosophy and has had a profound influence on modern educational theory.Our inner conflicts are caused by these contradictions. Drawn this way by nature and that way by man, compelled to yield to both forces, we make a compromise and reach neither goal. We go through life, struggling and hesitating, and die before we have found peace, useless alike to ourselves and to others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
