Émile eli Kasvatuksesta by Jean-Jacques Rousseau

"Émile eli Kasvatuksesta" by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a treatise published in 1762. This controversial work explores how individuals might preserve their natural goodness while living in corrupt society. Through the fictional story of a boy named Emile and his tutor, Rousseau presents a revolutionary vision of education from infancy through adulthood. The book's radical ideas sparked immediate controversy—it was banned and publicly burned in Paris and Geneva. Yet it profoundly influenced educational systems during the French Revolution and shaped early American thinking about public schooling. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
