Leatherbound. Condition: New. FACTORY SEALED! Leatherbound. . . . . . . . Rousseau's Confessions is often regarded as the first modern autobiography, covering the first fifty-three years of his life, from his birth in Geneva in 1712 up to 1765. He set out to give a candid, psychologically probing self-portrait, recounting childhood, apprenticeships, love affairs, friendships, and humiliating episodes, including the infamous story of falsely accusing a servant girl of stealing a ribbon and his abandonment of his children to a foundling hospital. The book is frequently compared to (and partly modeled on) Saint Augustine's Confessions, but in a secular, Enlightenment key, using personal experience to explore themes of authenticity, self-love, moral responsibility, and the corrupting effects of society. It is divided into twelve ?books,? moving from early family history through his years as a servant, musician, and writer and into the period when his controversial works made him a public lightning rod. The English text is by the translator A. S. B. Glover whose version has been widely used in twentieth-century English-language printings. Glover's translation aims for readable, idiomatic English while preserving Rousseau?s introspective tone and the alternation between confessional frankness and self-justification. . . . . . . .
