This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rousseau and Naturalism in Life and Thought A more serious dificulty in dealing with Rousseau than that presented by the multifarious and often conflicting materials to be considered, inheres in the character of the man himself, and the nature of many of his confidences. What a charm ing frankness through the Confessions! Wrote Samuel Rogers once to his friend Sharpe. Of the frankness there can be no question, though whether it is always charming will be a matter of individual taste. Rousseau has gained, as everybody knows, an unenviable kind of notoriety from his morbid habit of tearing aside the veil which men habitually keep drawn across their evil motives and actions, and of indulging in reminiscences and revelations which outrage all common feelings of decency and reserve. His autobiography is full of things which, in Pliny's phrase, must be introduced with an apology, even if they are touched upon at all. Now, to leave such matters out of our account alto gether is necessarily to give an incomplete, and there fore false, idea of Rousseau's character; to treat of them even briefly, is to run the risk of giving offence. More than once, I will admit that, face to face with the problem of what to include and what to avoid, I have felt the full force of a remark which the late Mr. Grant Allen once made to me - that it is impossible to give an absolutely accurate picture of Rousseau in any book written in English for popular perusal. I feel that it is only fair to myself to call attention to this difficulty. My own policy has been to err more on the side of reti cence than of outspokenness, and to imply rather than to particularise.

Book Rousseau  Nature  and the Problem of the Good Life

Download or read book Rousseau Nature and the Problem of the Good Life written by Laurence D. Cooper and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of modern science created a crisis for Western moral and political philosophy, which had theretofore relied either on Christian theology or Aristotelian natural teleology as guarantors of an objective standard for &"the good life.&" This book examines Rousseau's effort to show how and why, despite this challenge from science (which he himself intensified by equating our subhuman origins with our natural state), nature can remain a standard for human behavior. While recognizing an original goodness in human being in the state of nature, Rousseau knew this to be too low a standard and promoted the idea of &"the natural man living in the state of society,&" notably in Emile. Laurence Cooper shows how, for Rousseau, conscience&—understood as the &"love of order&"&—functions as the agent whereby simple savage sentiment is sublimated into a more refined &"civilized naturalness&" to which all people can aspire.

Download or read book Rousseau and Romanticism written by Irving Babbit and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Many readers will no doubt be tempted to exclaim on seeing my title: -Rousseau and no end!- The outpour of books on Rousseau had indeed in the period immediately preceding the war become somewhat portentous.[1] This preoccupation with Rousseau is after all easy to explain. It is his somewhat formidable privilege to represent more fully than any other one person a great international movement. To attack Rousseau or to defend him is most often only a way of attacking or defending this movement. It is from this point of view at all events that the present work is conceived. I have not undertaken a systematic study of Rousseau's life and doctrines. The appearance of his name in my title is justified, if at all, simply because he comes at a fairly early stage in the international movement the rise and growth of which I am tracing, and has on the whole supplied me with the most significant illustrations of it. I have already put forth certain views regarding this movement in three previous volumes.[2] Though each one of these volumes attempts to do justice to a particular topic, it is at the same time intended to be a link in a continuous argument. I hope that I may be allowed to speak here with some frankness of the main trend of this argument both on its negative and on its positive, or constructive, side. Perhaps the best key to both sides of my argument is found in the lines of Emerson I have taken as epigraph for -Literature and the American College-: There are two laws discrete Not reconciled, - Law for man, and law for thing; The last builds town and fleet, But it runs wild, And doth the man unking. On its negative side my argument is directed against this undue emphasis on the -law for thing, - against the attempt to erect on naturalistic foundations a complete philosophy of life. I define two main forms of naturalism-on the one hand, utilitarian and scientific and, on the other, emotional naturalism. The type of romanticism I am studying is inseparably bound up with emotional naturalism. This type of romanticism encouraged by the naturalistic movement is only one of three main types I distinguish and I am dealing for the most part with only one aspect of it. But even when thus circumscribed the subject can scarcely be said to lack importance; for if I am right in my conviction as to the unsoundness of a Rousseauistic philosophy of life, it follows that the total tendency of the Occident at present is away from rather than towards civilization. On the positive side, my argument aims to reassert the -law for man, - and its special discipline against the various forms of naturalistic excess. At the very mention of the word discipline I shall be set down in certain quarters as reactionary. But does it necessarily follow from a plea for the human law that one is a reactionary or in general a traditionalist?
