Rousseau's Theodicy of Self-Love: Evil, Rationality, and the Drive for Recognition
Neuhouser, Frederick (Columbia University)
Jean-Jacques Rousseau revolutionized our understanding of ourselves with his brilliant investigation of amour propre: the passion that drives humans to seek the esteem, approval, admiration, or love - the recognition - of their fellow beings. Frederick Neuhouser traces the development of this key idea in modern thought.
