About This Novel

"Rousseau and the Revolution" ushered in a new era. Rousseau had an incredible influence in literature, education, philosophy, religion, moral law, social behavior, art and politics. Rousseau is the father of the Romantic movement. Mrs. De Stael once said of Rousseau: "He created nothing, but burned everything." Like most key events in history, 100 different factors converged into the French Revolution, and Rousseau was the direct ideological promoter of the French Revolution. The ideas of the modern world, the ideological systems of the modern world, and the way of thinking of the modern world... Still originate from that era and that region.
