This essay explores the coherency of Rousseau’s work as a whole. It makes the case for a constant presence of goodness and the self and, at the same time, a strong negativity associated with the “other” and with “time”. This tension becomes the rhythm of a certain philosophy of happiness, in which language is able to turn shadows into a play of light and dark.

Review - French Le present essai sur Jean-Jacques Rousseau s'efforce de pressentir l'unite de son oeuvre. Il la concoit comme le laboratoire d'un esprit. On y discerne le bien et le moi occupant ensemble l'espace ideal de l'origine, et puis l'autrequi aliene et letempsqui denature. La memoire, la reverie et la pensee font alterner leur pouvoir en vue d'une heureuse ressaisie du moi. Certes, Rousseau ne cesse de deplorer que l'authentique dont il se reclame ne puisse etre rejoint dans l'immediat. Mais sa philosophie n'en est pas moins une philosophie du bonheur, la tension devenant rythme par la magie de sa parole et les ombres de sa peinture produisant le plus magnifique des clairs-obscurs.
