Reviews

Matthew D. Mendham displays an extraordinary degree of research into relevant primary and secondary texts to explore Rousseau's life in context. This includes sources that are frequently neglected in the secondary literature, such as his untranslated letters. As readers will see, everything in this book has been meticulously documented and researched. -David Lay Williams, DePaul University Matthew D. Mendham has given us a genuinely valuable book. It is scholarly in the best sense: deeply familiar with its subject, fair-minded in evaluating competing views, penetrating in analysis, quietly witty at times, and free of jargon. Badly as this study is needed, Mendham is the first to attempt anything like it. -Leo Damrosch, Harvard University
