Publisher Synopsis
"Stelio Cro's book is a well-written, logical progression of the theme of the noble savage seen through the lens of comparative literatures, and important focus that has heretofore been absent. This book is an excellent study on the history of utopias and the noble savage and their role in Western European thought." -- Dianne M. Bono, The William Paterson College of New Jersey -- Colonial Latin American Review, Vol. 2, nos. 1-2, 1993 "Cro...provides us with a fascinating, deeply researched thesis as to the origins of some of the most 'original' ideas of Rousseau. This alone makes his present volume particularly valuable to those interested in understanding better the turning-point represented by the eighteenth century." -- Patrick Brady, University of Tennessee -- Eighteenth-Century Studies, Vol. 26, #1, Fall 1992 Read more...
