Introduction:

Jean-Jacques Rousseau was a western philosopher in the 18th Century. He was well 
know for his views and ideas and had many major influences in the world in regards to 
philosophy, politics, education, literature, autobiographies and music. 
 
In 1778 he died and was buried along side other French national heroes which signals 
his importance in that era. 
 
I, who made this task, think it is very important to explore his views and the life that he 
lead. Rousseau held the view that &ldquo;Man is good by nature&rdquo; assuming that all children 
are like sponges of their surroundings; he held strong views about how all children are 
exactly equal at birth, and that it is the influences of society that determines whether 
the child develops into &ldquo;a good&rdquo; or &ldquo;a bad&rdquo; person. 
 
When working with this task please remember, that Rousseau was living from 1772 to 
1778, and that situations are very different in the society today, as well as within 
different countries and cultures. 
 
As a teacher I consider his views about children and their surroundings similar to my 
own views. You however, might disagree with his ideas and feel that another &lsquo;thinker&rsquo; 
has a more relevant view of development that is more towards what you think.
