| Summary |
Rousseau and the Women He Lovedℓis a unique biography that examines Rousseau's life with respectℓto the women he knew. Gribble focuses mainly on Rousseau's relationship with Madame de Warens, who was both Rousseau's benefactress and mistress. She also spent time and expense to fill in the gaps of Rousseau's education. Madame deℓWarens was quite liberal for a woman of her era and was even suspected of being a spy and converter for the region of Savoy. Born a protestant, Madame deℓWarens converted to Catholicism in order to obtain a pension the Catholic Church had instated to help spread the religion.ℓ |
