Discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes

內容簡介

內容簡介 《論人與人之間不平等的起因和基礎》又名第二講演集，是盧梭(Jean Jacques Rousseau)為回應法國第戎科學院徵文題目所撰寫的作品。盧梭在這部作品中推測了人類當初所生存的自然狀態的情況，並且描述其後來演變成進入社會狀態的過程。按照他的觀點，私有制是所有不平等的起源和基礎。The Norton Library edition of Rousseau’s Discourse features an inviting and readable translation by Julia Conaway Bondanella that makes the text accessible to the modern English reader while faithfully preserving the power and clarity of Rousseau’s voice and style of argumentation. A thorough introduction by Frederick Neuhouser—'one of the most brilliant philosophical readers of Rousseau that we have” (Christopher Brooke)—provides historical and intellectual context for the Discourse and its major arguments. Annotations throughout the text clarify obscure or ambiguous terms and references.
