The Norton Library edition of Rousseau’s Discourse features an inviting and readable translation by Julia Conaway Bondanella that makes the text accessible to the modern English reader while faithfully preserving the power and clarity of Rousseau’s voice and style of argumentation. A thorough introduction by Frederick Neuhouser―"one of the most brilliant philosophical readers of Rousseau that we have” (Christopher Brooke)―provides historical and intellectual context for the Discourse and its major arguments. Annotations throughout the text clarify obscure or ambiguous terms and references.

About the Author
Frederick Neuhouser has taught philosophy at Harvard University, the University of California, and Cornell University. He is now Professor of Philosophy and Viola Manderfeld Professor of German Language and Literature at Barnard College in New York City. He has written two books on Rousseau: Rousseau's Critique of Inequality, a guide to reading the Discourse on the Origin of Inequality; and Rousseau's Theodicy of Self-Love, on the dangers and redemptive potential of amour-propre. He is also the author of two books and numerous articles in post-Kantian German philosophy and is Permanent Fellow at the Center for Humanities and Social Change at the Humboldt Universität, Berlin. His current project, inspired by the Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, is on what we mean when we call a society "sick."
