Meer over het boek

Exploring the nature of education and humanity, this influential treatise by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is regarded as his most significant work. Its controversial section, "Profession of Faith of the Savoyard Vicar," led to its ban and public burning in 1762. Despite this, it became a key inspiration for the development of a new national education system during the French Revolution, highlighting its lasting impact on educational philosophy and reform.
