Synopsis
This book focuses on the relationship between Jean-Jacques Rousseau and his native city of Geneva, from the vantage of their first meeting up until the "Affaire Rousseau," the public scandal that forced Rousseau out of Geneva. Before this infamous event, Rousseau was a beloved figure in Geneva. The author traces how and why Rousseau's relationship with the city soured over time. He was particularly critical of Geneva's Calvinist government and its treatment of dissenters. Rousseau's increasingly vocal criticism of the city's social and religious norms led to a public falling out with the Genevan authorities and his eventual exile.
