Introduction: Philosopher and听homme de lettres听of Swiss origin, Rousseau was an original thinker, largely at odds with the prevailing opinions of the times. His works provoked debate across Europe and as a result, were readily printed. His ideas are still at the core of teaching curricula and used in classes and research papers. Noteworthy for its depth of contemporary editions and numerous editions of his collected works, the 成人VR视频 collection is a comprehensive and carefully curated collection of fine editions making it a prime resource in North America.

Extent:听There are more than 250 writings by Rousseau, some of which are first or early editions (including counterfeits), or variant states of any one edition. There are translations (predominantly into English), adaptations, and abridgments which afford further dimensions for study.

Types of material:听Rousseau is noted for the rich diversity of his oeuvre: essays, fiction, political treatises, compendiums of botany, a dictionary of music and an opera, printed in books and collected sets of his works, while many pamphlets attest to his controversial ideas.

Date range:听18th听century contemporary imprints and 19th听century republications.

Language/s:听Predominantly French and English, with many European language translations.

Geographic coverage:听Europe

Provenance:听Formed in the 1950s and developed substantially in the 1980s and 1990s.

Highlights:听Rousseau first gained widespread attention with a prize essay on the arts and sciences published in June 1751 as听Discours sur les Arts et les Sciences,听followed by听Discours sur l'origine et les fondemens de l'ine虂galite虂 parmi les hommes听(1755). The collection houses these pivotal works along with the numerous pamphlets and rejoinders which raged in print over decades. 成人VR视频 also collects comprehensively on the most famous titles upon which Rousseau worked simultaneously:听La Nouvelle Heloise听(1761),听Emile听(1762), and the听Contrat Social听(1762). Rousseau had wide impact in Britain. Translations into English add significant scholarly reflection of his oeuvre. Many contemporary commentaries and criticisms on his works, such as the numerous rejoinders published in pamphlets and books in response to his听Lettre a d鈥橝lembert听(1758), which ended in an irreparable discord among the encyclop茅distes.

Rousseau鈥檚听Dictionnaire de musique听(1764), and his lessons on botany are highly present and scarce, including听Lettres elementaires sur la botanique听(1771). He also shaped the autobiographical genre in interesting ways, and used it to explain and defend his own writings in the posthumously published听Confessions听and the听Reveries d鈥檜n promeneur solitaire. Notable examples at 成人VR视频 of Rousseau鈥檚 collected works included an early set published in Geneva in 1756, and the听Oeuvres de Rousseau听published in Amsterdam in 1770 by Rousseau鈥檚 exclusive publisher Marc-Michel Rey. Rousseau鈥檚 editions are the most embellished editions of all the subsequent editions of the听philosophes听in the 19th听century, making them highly collectible.

In terms of manuscripts, there is also a contemporary manuscript copy of 鈥淛ean Jacques Rousseau鈥� a Christophe de Beaumont,鈥� dated 1763, representing Rousseau鈥檚 response to Archbishop Beaumont about the latter鈥檚 condemnation of Emile. In addition, there are examples of Rousseau apocrypha, such as the Letters of an Italian Nun.

Access to the collection: The totality of the collection is available through the 成人VR视频 Library .

Related RBSC collections (bibliographic): 成人VR视频 is a major destination for Enlightenment studies. The Rousseau collection is a fundamental part of 成人VR视频鈥檚 holdings specialized in the French Enlightenment. It is an interesting counterpoint to the J. Patrick Lee Voltaire Collection, and contributes to writings by the encyclop茅distes and many French Enlightenment authors: Cr茅billion fils, Louis-Sebastien Mercier, and Retif de La Bretonne and female writers such as Madame de Graffigny. It also relates to scope of the library鈥檚 material on the French Revolution and on Napoleon. The collection has specific connections to British philosophy of the period, including that of Scottish philosopher David Hume, and has broader rapport with the extensive holdings in 18th听century intellectual history.
