Confessions is an autobiographical book by Jean-Jacques Rousseau. It covers his life up until fifty-three years of age, so until 1765. This autobiography was completed in 1769, but was actually not published until 1782. It is a unique autobiography in the fact that Rousseau wrote about even his most humiliating moments. Rousseau also writes about how he "disposed" of his five children, whom he had out of marriage with Theresa Levasseur. Jean-Jacques Rousseau; 28 June 1712 – 2 July 1778) was a Genevan philosopher, writer, and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of the Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution and the development of modern political, economic, and educational thought.[1] His Discourse on Inequality and The Social Contract are cornerstones in modern political and social thought. Rousseau's sentimental novel Julie, or the New Heloise (1761) was important to the development of preromanticism and romanticism in fiction. His Emile, or On Education (1762) is an educational treatise on the place of the individual in society. Rousseau's autobiographical writings—the posthumously published Confessions (composed in 1769), which initiated the modern autobiography, and the unfinished Reveries of the Solitary Walker (composed 1776–1778)—exemplified the late-18th-century "Age of Sensibility", and featured an increased focus on subjectivity and introspection that later characterized modern writing.
