Produktbeschreibung
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, (1712-1778) was a philosopher and composer of the Enlightenment whose political philosophy influenced the French Revolution, the development of both liberal and socialist theory, and the growth of nationalism.
The book ""Profession of Faith of a Savoyard Vicar: Also, A Search for Truth"" was written by the famous philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau and was first published in 1889. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part being a dialogue between a Savoyard vicar and an unnamed interlocutor, while the second part is a personal reflection by Rousseau on the themes discussed in the first part.In the first part, the Savoyard vicar discusses his religious beliefs and his understanding of the nature of God, morality, and the afterlife. He argues that true religious faith is not based on dogma or blind adherence to tradition, but rather on a personal search for truth and a deep understanding of the natural world.The second part of the book is a more personal reflection by Rousseau on the themes discussed in the first part. He discusses his own struggles with faith and his search for a deeper understanding of the world around him. He also reflects on the role of reason and intuition in the search for truth and the importance of living a moral and virtuous life.Overall, ""Profession of Faith of a Savoyard Vicar: Also, A Search for Truth"" is a thought-provoking and deeply philosophical work that explores some of the most fundamental questions of human existence. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, religion, and the nature of truth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
Jean-Jacques Rousseau (28 June 1712 - 2 July 1778) was a Genevan philosopher, writer and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of the Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution and the development of modern political, economic and educational thought. His Discourse on Inequality and The Social Contract are cornerstones in modern political and social thought. Rousseau's sentimental novel Julie, or the New Heloise (1761) was important to the development of preromanticism and romanticism in fiction. His Emile, or On Education (1762) is an educational treatise on the place of the individual in society. Rousseau's autobiographical writings-the posthumously published Confessions (composed in 1769), which initiated the modern autobiography, and the unfinished Reveries of a Solitary Walker (composed 1776-1778)-exemplified the late-18th-century Age of Sensibility, and featured an increased focus on subjectivity and introspection that later characterized modern writing. Rousseau befriended fellow philosophy writer Denis Diderot in 1742, and would later write about Diderot's romantic troubles in his Confessions. 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.
