Download or read book Against Rousseau written by Joseph de Maistre and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the State of Nature and On the Sovereignty of the People are Maistre's most comprehensive treatment of Rousseau's ideas and his most sustained critique of the ideological foundations of the revolution. On the State of Nature, a detailed critique of Rousseau's Discourse on the Origin and Foundations of Inequality, focuses on Rousseau's belief in the natural goodness of man; On the Sovereignty of the People, a critique of Social Contract, explores Rousseau's theory of popular sovereignty. In Maistre's eyes Rousseau encouraged the socially destructive individualism that lay at the heart of the French Revolution. However, the essays reveal some surprising ambiguities in the relationship between two seminal thinkers who are usually thought of as polar opposites, suggesting that Maistre's vision was more akin to Rousseau's than he would have admitted. Against Rousseau offers valuable insights into the evolution of Maistre's counter-revolutionary ideas during the crucial years of 1792-97 and illustrates his remarkable insights into society and politics. It is vital to any consideration of his thought or the counter-revolutionary movement in eighteenth-century France.
Download or read book The Pen and the Needle Rousseau and the Enlightenment Debate over Women s Education written by Joanna M. Barker and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2021-11-26 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the history of the controversy over the education of women in the second half of the eighteenth century, and in particular the influence of Rousseau’s Émile. It includes extracts from the writings of men and women, both English and French, and introduces a variety of opinions, putting them in context and tracing the complex way in which writers responded to Rousseau and also to each other’s published views. It contains thirteen textual extracts arranged in chronological order of first publication, to show how the controversy developed over the forty-year period from 1762 to 1799, a time of dramatic political and social change, and in particular the reaction caused by the shock of the French Revolution and the resulting emphasis on women’s domestic role.

Book excerpt: This tragedy was produced in 1730. It marks Voltaire's spirit of daring in treating a subject from which Shakespeare shrank as, perhaps, too painful for representation.

Download or read book Rousseau on Stage written by Maria Gullstam and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following his opposition to the establishment of a theatre in Geneva, Jean-Jacques Rousseau is often considered an enemy of the stage. Yet he was fascinated by drama: he was a keen theatre-goer, his earliest writings were operas and comedies, his admiration for Italian lyric theatre ran through his career, he wrote one of the most successful operas of the day, Le Devin du village, and with his Pygmalion, he invented a new theatrical genre, the Scène lyrique('melodrama'). Through multi-faceted analyses of Rousseau's theatrical and musical works, authors re-evaluate his practical and theoretical involvement with and influence on the dramatic arts, as well as his presence in modern theatre histories. New readings of the Lettre à d'Alembert highlight its political underpinnings, positioning it as an act of resistance to external bourgeois domination of Geneva's cultural sphere, and demonstrate the work's influence on theatrical reform after Rousseau's death. Fresh analyses of his theory of voice, developed in the Essai sur l'origine des langues, highlight the unique prestige of Italian opera for Rousseau. His ambition to rethink the nature and function of stage works, seen in Le Devin du village and then, more radically, in Pygmalion, give rise to several different discussions in the volume, as do his complex relations with Gluck. Together, contributors shed new light on the writer's relationship to the stage, and argue for a more nuanced approach to his theatrical and operatic works, theories and legacy.
