The philosophy, culture, and social ideals of Rousseau are represented by George Sand in the figure of Edme, with reason, literacy, and virtue triumphing over ignorance and cruelty. The emerging result is a new kind of equality, the Revolutionary French egalit, not merely between the social strata of men but between the sexes. A rich, idealist, and romantic classic from the pen of one of the earliest great feminist authors. |
