Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a prominent philosopher during the Enlightenment, is well-known for several key ideas and works that have had a significant influence on educational philosophy, political theory, and society at large. Among the options provided:
A. Emile: Rousseau wrote "Emile, or On Education," which emphasizes natural education and individual learning. This work is directly associated with Rousseau.
B. Social Contract: Rousseau is also famous for "The Social Contract," where he presents the idea that legitimate political authority rests on the consent of the governed, not on the divine right of kings.
C. Back to Nature: This phrase encapsulates Rousseau's belief in the inherent goodness of man in the state of nature and the corrupting influence of society. He advocated for a more natural lifestyle as a way to remedy the corruption of civilization.
D. Man is born as Slave: This statement misrepresents Rousseau's view. Rousseau actually said, "Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains," highlighting the contrast between the freedom of individuals in the state of nature and their loss of freedom in society.
E. Knowledge is based on reason only: This statement does not accurately reflect Rousseau's comprehensive view on knowledge, which also valued emotion and experience as important sources of understanding.
