Book Overview

The book ""Victor Cousin"" by Jules Simon is a biography of the French philosopher and educational reformer, Victor Cousin. The book delves into Cousin's life, starting with his childhood and upbringing in rural France, and tracing his intellectual development as he studied at the �����cole Normale Sup�����rieure and became a prominent figure in the French academic world.Simon explores Cousin's philosophical ideas, including his belief in the importance of reason and his advocacy for a liberal education that would teach students to think critically and independently. The book also covers Cousin's role in French politics, including his appointment as Minister of Public Instruction under King Louis-Philippe.Throughout the book, Simon provides a detailed portrait of Cousin as a complex and multifaceted figure, highlighting both his strengths and weaknesses. The biography is well-researched and provides a rich context for understanding Cousin's ideas and influence on French intellectual life in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
