(Jean-Jacques) Rousseau, Jean Jacques The Confessions of Jean Jacques Rousseau — Volume 10 Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confessions_(Rousseau) Produced by David Widger "The Confessions of Jean Jacques Rousseau — Volume 10" by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is an autobiographical work written in the early 19th century. This volume, part of Rousseau's larger autobiographical project, delves into his personal experiences and struggles during a tumultuous period of his life, focusing primarily on themes of isolation, betrayal, and the complexities of human relationships. Rousseau reflects on his declining health and the social intrigues surrounding him, particularly with figures like Madam d'Epinay, Grimm, and others. The opening portion introduces Rousseau's feelings of melancholy and physical suffering as he settles into his new residence at Montmorency. He recounts the impact of his current state on his relationships, notably his estrangement from friends and the manipulations by others that have led to public disdain towards him. He describes interactions and correspondences with several prominent individuals, revealing the tensions and misunderstandings that ensue. Rousseau's narrative reveals his introspective nature as he grapples with his sense of honor and the perception of his character by others, which gradually sets the stage for deeper explorations of love, societal expectations, and the nature of friendship throughout the volume.
