Jean Jacques Rousseau |

 |

 |
||||||
| The philosopher and writer Jean Jacques Rousseau believed that individuals in a state of nature were morally superior to modern, civilized people. His belief in natural innocence pervaded his ideas on education and society as well as his fiction. In his concern with the exploration of conflicts between moral and sensual values, and his belief in the natural goodness of man, Rousseau was a major influence on 19th-century romanticism, both literary and political. | ||||||
