Description
First published in 1761, La Nouvelle Héloïse is a correspondence between Julie d'Étange and her tutor Saint-Preux, set against the backdrop of life by a lake. This idyllic society values gentle passions and sincere sentiment, offering an escape from the troubles of civilisation.
Rousseau's work is part of a tradition of experimental fiction, exploring the intersection of anthropology and politics in the 18th century. The book combines elements of romance, elegy, and philosophical inquiry, showcasing its significance as a major literary achievement of its time.
This edition includes supplementary materials such as Subjects d'estampes, Entretien sur les romans, Observations de Rousseau sur les retranchements voulus par Malesherbes, and Les Amours de Milord Édouard Bomston.
