Note 235 — TABLE I.
Reading edition
Rousseau's "Emile" has been called the greatest book ever written; but we presume that bias and limitation of knowledge on the part of critics (not rare accomplishments of theirs) might procure a similar judgment in respect to almost any strong and peculiar book. Rousseau's "Confessions" are worth some attention. (France, 18th cent.)
Saintine's "Picciola" is a beautiful story. (France, 19th cent.)
