∙ 15y agoFamous philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born June 28, 1712 to a watchmaker and minister's daughter (who died after giving birth) in Geneva, Switzerland. In 1725 he was an apprentice for an engraver but only three years later he ran away from his apprenticeship to Italy, France and Switzerland, during this time he converts to Catholicism and became a musician and composer. Also, during this period he developed an interest in philosophy and educating others of his philosophical ideas. Rousseau is considered to be one of the first writers to seriously attack the institution of private property; as a result he was considered a grandparent of modern socialism. Rousseau's emphasized that politics and morality should not be separated. He believed that everyone was naturally born a good person but it was the things around people that result in the corruption of people. Rousseau also had different beliefs of how the education system should work. He believed that the bookwork per se, wasn't as important has the experience and emotions obtained through learning. His publications include: Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts, Discourse on Inequality, Letter to d'Alembert, Heloise, Emile and The Social Contract. He continued to produce works until he died of apoplexy on July 2, 1778.
