Excerpt from Jean Jacques Rousseau, Vol. 2: A New Criticism
The Story Of The Atrocious Letter To Saint-Lambert
Was Rousseau a calumniator when, in the preface to his Lettre à d'Alembert, he accused Diderot of having destroyed their friendship by "upbraidings and arrogance, by the betrayal of a secret, and by a treacherous blow?"
This eloquent Letter (Rousseau's criticism upon d'Alembert's article upon Geneva in the Encyclopœdia) appeared in October 1758. Here is the passage in the preface that announced the author's rupture with Diderot to their mutual friends.
"Taste, choice and correctness of language must not be looked for in this work. Living alone, I have shown it to no one. I once possessed a severe and judicious Aristarchus: I have him no longer: and I do not wish for his help; but I shall always regret him. And my heart suffers even more from his loss than my writings do.

Jean Jacques Rousseau, Vol. 2: A New Criticism (Classic Reprint)
Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the genesis of a false reputation which was deliberately constructed for the author, Jean-Jacques Rousseau. It argues that a conspiracy was engineered by two of Rousseau's acquaintances, the writer Denis Diderot, and the German literary critic, Friedrich Melchior von Grimm. This book delves into the events and machinations that led to the creation of this false reputation and analyzes the methods used by Diderot and Grimm to systematically spread discredit through the circulation of fabricated stories, malicious gossip, and false accusations. Through a careful examination of the historical record and the author's own writings, this book sheds new light on the relationship between Rousseau and his alleged conspirators, unmasking the personal motivations and jealousies that drove them to destroy his reputation. In doing so, this book offers a fresh perspective on the enduring legacy of Rousseau's ideas and the enduring power of reputation to shape our understanding of historical figures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331628651_0
