Some of the essays re-orient Rousseau back to his Swiss context, while others address a Rousseauean Switzerland, a landscape indelibly coloured for writers and travellers by his presence. Among the authors discussed are Dorothy and William Wordsworth, Byron, Mary Shelley, James Boswell, Frances Brooke, Walter Scott, Felicia Hemans, and the Swiss cartoonist Rodolphe ToÌpffer. Topics include Rousseau's relevance to Romantic-era discoveries and debates on education, botany, automata, and suicide. Delving into Romanticism's engagement with Switzerland, these essays examine the rise of alpine and literary tourism, technologies of the picturesque, and representations and reconstructions of Swiss landscape in verbal and visual media"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 8 $a Machine generated contents note: -- List of IllustrationsNotes on the Contributors1.Introduction; Patrick Vincent, Diane Piccitto, and Angela Esterhammer2.Romantic Education, Concealment and Orchestrated Desire in Rousseau's Emile and Frances Brooke's Julia Mandeville; Enit K.
