Summary "Jean Jacques Rousseau ja hänen filosofiansa" by Harald Høffding is a philosophical and biographical exploration written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the life and thoughts of the influential thinker Jean Jacques Rousseau, who grappled with fundamental questions concerning human nature, society, and the tension between civilization and natural instincts. Høffding aims to illuminate Rousseau's complex character and philosophical contributions, portraying him as an essential figure in the Enlightenment period. At the start of the publication, Høffding introduces Rousseau's pivotal moment of awakening while on his way to visit Diderot, during which he comes across a contest question from the Dijon Academy about the effects of arts and sciences on morality. This encounter triggers a profound internal reflection in Rousseau, leading him to question the value of societal progress compared to the purity of nature. The opening passages capture Rousseau's emotional response and his immediate realization of the conflicts between civilized society and authentic human feeling. Høffding highlights Rousseau's lifelong struggle with these dilemmas, setting the stage for a deeper examination of his philosophy and literary works throughout the rest of the text.
