Le Contrat Social ou Principes du Droit Politique Vol 1 (of 2) The Social Contract or the Principles of Political Rights Vol 1 (of 2) by Jean-Jacques Rousseau Jean-Jacques Rousseau (28 June 1712 – 2 July 1778) was a 18th century philosopher. His political philosophy influenced the French Revolution. His writings had a deep impact on the modern political, sociological and educational thought. Project Bilingual (A division of Wolf Pup Books) is a continuing project making available great original French writers' texts along with their English translation. This edition, which offers after every original language paragraph its translation, makes both grammar and vocabulary checks as painless as possible. Idiomatic forms that could be overlooked can be easily detected. Furthermore, large paragraphs have been broken down to much smaller units so that the check is as effortless as possible. We do hope that by reading French writers that defined the language itself or whose work permeated the French culture, you will be able to get the maximum benefit from this language series. Although this edition is not a replacement for traditional methods of learning language, it is a very powerful tool to speed up the process once you have attained the intermediate level and beyond.
