• Resumen

  • Rousseau gives Émile Robinson Crusoe and Sophie Les aventures de Télémaque to read, thus providing man with a natural model of autonomy and woman with a social model of obedience. These texts have a two-fold purpose in their education : Sophie, who dreams of Telemachus, finds him in Émile and thus, by marrying him, satisfies an imaginary passion ; Émile, by identifying with Robinson Crusoe, learns to develop the good side of human nature. In this way, Rousseau manages to create artificially the conditions for a good education. He prevents Émile and Sophie from being contaminated by the bad examples of a degenerate society and prepares them to act on this society, to try to transform it.
