Is Jean-Jacques Rousseau underrated/not much read? I find him

I liked how feisty his writing can be, how furious of an opponent it made him look. But it's been a long time since I've read him, what would you recommend, anon?

>>8372343
Don't worry, if nothing else he'll always be remembered as the guy Voltaire picked on

Well, his confessions is a great read: funny, colfy, well written. The Emile; or on education is in my opinion one of the best books ever written. Then there's also of course his expressly political essays and some fiction.

Do you think voltaire is more interesting? I haven't read much of him, only candide.

He's a fucking retard and I hate him, this homo was wrong about everything

Who on earth would forget about Rousseau. That's like being afraid of Newton's laws being forgotten.

His prose is absolutely exquisite. You should really read the Confessions and the Reveries of a Solitary Walker.
