Du contrat social
"Paru en 1762, le Contrat social, en affirmant le principe de souveraineté du peuple, a constitué un tournant décisif pour la modernité et s'est imposé comme un des textes majeurs de la philosophie politique. Il a aussi acquis le statut de monument, plus célèbre que connu, plus révéré - ou honni - qu'interrogé. Retrouver, dans les formules fameuses et les pages d'anthologie, le mouvement de la réflexion et les questions vives qui nourrissent une œuvre beaucoup plus problématique qu'affirmative, c'est découvrir une pensée qui se tient au plus près des préoccupations d'aujourd'hui : comment intégrer les intérêts de tous dans la détermination de l'intérêt commun ? Comment lutter contre la pente de tout gouvernement à déposséder les citoyens de la souveraineté ? Comment former en chacun ce sentiment d'obligation sans lequel le lien social se défait ?"--Quatrième de couverture.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau was a major Genevois philosopher, writer, and composer of 18th-century Romanticism. His political philosophy influenced the French Revolution and the development of modern political, sociological and educational thought. His novel, *Emile: or, On Education*, which he considered his most important work, is a seminal treatise on the education of the whole person for citizenship. His sentimental novel, Julie, ou la nouvelle Héloïse, was of great importance to the development of pre-Romanticism and romanticism in fiction. Rousseau's autobiographical writings: his *Confessions*, which initiated the modern autobiography, and his *Reveries of a Solitary Walker* were among the pre-eminent examples of the late 18th-century movement known as the "Age of Sensibility", featuring an increasing focus on subjectivity and introspection that has characterized the modern age. Rousseau also made important contributions to music as a theorist. During the period of the French Revolution, Rousseau was the most popular of the philosophers among members of the Jacobin Club. He was interred as a national hero in the Panthéon in Paris, in 1794, 16 years after his death.<sup>[1][1]</sup> [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Jacques_Rousseau
