CONFESSIONS by Jean Jacques ROUSSEAU, Audio Books
CONFESSIONS by JeanJacques ROUSSEAU Full Audiobook Thus I have acted; these were my thoughts; such was I. JeanJacques ROUSSEAU Rousseaus lengthy and sometimes anguished dossier on the Self is one of the most remarkable and courageous works of introspection ever undertaken. Some readers may be repelled by his tendency to revel in embarrassing accounts of humiliation and fiasco, as if he were striving too hard to achieve an ultimate nakedness, a nakedness of the soul perhaps. Others may recall the compulsive selfsearching of the narrator of Prousts A la recherche du temps perdu, who also rather dwelt on the coexistence in the individual of the vile and the virtuous.
