C.W. Hendel, Jean-Jacques Rousseau: Moralist (Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merril, 1934).

Excerpt:

Late in the manhood of Rousseau the moralist was born. Ordinary men who mature under parental care and acquire their moral principles through the slow and unconscious processes of habit scarcely know such discovery of themselves as moral beings. But for him it was a sudden and transforming disclosure. He was conscious of what was taking place within him, and his memory of the experience was so clear and distinct that he could long afterwards delineate his life during those days with a verisimilitude which makes it impossible for us to think it fiction.
