Jean-Jacques Rousseau: Restless Genius
The philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau burst unexpectedly onto the eighteenth-century literary scene as a provocateur whose works electrified readers. An autodidact who had not written anything of significance by age thirty, Rousseau seemed an unlikely candidate to become one of the most influential thinkers in history. Yet the power of his ideas is felt to this day in our political and social lives. In a masterly and definitive biography, Leo Damrosch traces the extraordinary life of Rousseau with novelistic verve. He presents Rousseau's books -- The Social Contract, one of the greatest works on political theory; Emile, a groundbreaking treatise on education; and the Confessions, which created the genre of introspective autobiography -- as works uncannily alive and provocative even today. Jean-Jacques Rousseau offers a vivid portrait of the visionary's tumultuous life.

"Fyra brev till ordförande Malesherbes innehållande den sanna bilden av min karaktär och de verkliga motiven för allt mitt handlande."Jean-Jacques Rosseau skrev 1762 fyra brev till Malesherbes. Dessa brev säger mycket om författarens stämningar vid en avgörande tid och de förebådar åtskilligt som Rousseau längre fram skulle utveckla i de större självbiografiska verken "Bekännelser" och "En ensidig drömmerier".Breven är översatta av Jan Stople.

Yhteiskuntasopimuksesta, E-bok
Jean-Jacques Rousseaun kirja Yhteiskuntasopimuksesta on poliittisen filosofian perusteoksia. Teoksessaan Rousseau arvostelee uskontoa ja esittää oman näkemyksensä oikeudenmukaisen yhteiskunnan kehityksestä ja hallinnosta. Vuonna 1762 julkaistu teos kiellettiin Ranskassa pian ilmestymisensä jälkeen ja Rousseau joutui pakenemaan maasta.

Yhteiskuntasopimuksesta, E-bok
Millainen on oikeudenmukainen yhteiskunta? Miksi osan kansasta pitää elää kurjuudessa, kun toisilla on liikaakin rahaa? Millaisessa yhteiskunnassa ihminen voisi parhaiten kukoistaa? Jean-Jacques Rousseau oli filosofi, jolle kansan huonot olot eivät olleet vieras käsite. Hän uskoi, että yhteiskunta ja sen huonot puolet pilaavat ihmisessä olevan hyvyyden. Samalla yhteiskunta muuttaa ihmisen helposti orjaksi, vaikka luonto on tehnyt hänet vapaaksi. Rousseaun Yhteiskuntasopimuksesta on klassikko, jonka merkitys on valtava. Rousseaun ajatukset yhteiskunnallisesta tasa-arvoisuudesta olivat 1700-luvulla radikaaleja. Samalla ne loivat pohjaa nykyisille demokratioille. Sveitsiläs-ranskalainen Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778) on tunnetuimpia valistusajan filosofeja. Hänen teoksensa käsittelevät niin yhteiskunnallisia kysymyksiä kuin myös kasvatustieteitä.EPUB3: Reflowable
