J.j. Rousseau - An Afterlife of Words

Klappentext Friedlander's book provides an afterlife for the "Reveries in modern philosophy. It constitutes an alternative to the analytic tradition's revival of Rousseau, primarily through Rawls's influential vision of the social contract. It also counters the fate of Rousseau's writings in the continental tradition, determined by and large by Derrida's deconstruction.
