Book Title:Rousseau’s Theodicy of Self-Love
Publication Name:NA

Rousseau’s Theodicy of Self-Love by Frederick Neuhouser Jean-Jacques Rousseau revolutionized our understanding of ourselves with his brilliant investigation of amour propre: the passion that drives humans to seek the esteem, approval, admiration, or love – the recognition – of their fellow beings. Frederick Neuhouser traces the development of this key idea in modern thought. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book is the first comprehensive study of Rousseaus rich and complex theory of the type of self-love (amour propre ) that, for him, marks the central difference between humans and the beasts. Amour propre is the passion that drives human individuals to seek the esteem, approval, admiration, or love–the recognition –of their fellow beings. Neuhouser reconstructs Rousseaus understanding of what the drive for recognition is, why it is so problematic,and how its presence opens up far-reaching developmental possibilities for creatures that possess it. One of Rousseaus central theses is that amour propre in its corrupted, manifestations–pride or vanity–isthe principal source of an array of evils so widespread that they can easily appear to be necessary features of the human condition: enslavement, conflict, vice, misery, and self-estrangement. Yet Rousseau also argues that solving these problems depends not on suppressing or overcoming the drive for recognition but on cultivating it so that it contributes positively to the achievement of freedom, peace, virtue, happiness, and unalienated selfhood. Indeed, Rousseau goes so far as toclaim that, despite its many dangers, the need for recognition is a condition of nearly everything that makes human life valuable and that elevates it above mere animal existence: rationality, morality,freedom–subjectivity itself–would be impossible for humans if it were not for amour propre and the relations to others it impels us to establish. Author Biography Frederick Neuhouser received his PhD in Philosophy from Columbia University in 1988 and has held teaching positions at Harvard University, University of California, and Cornell University. He is currently Professor of Philosophy and Viola Manderfeld Professor of German at Barnard College, Columbia University and Affiliate Scholar at the Center for Psychoanalytic Training, Columbia University. He is the author of two earlier books, Fichtes theory ofSubjectivity (Cambridge University Press, 1990) and Actualizing Freedom: Foundations of Hegels Social Theory (Harvard University Press, 2000).
