Abstract

The influence of the novel Julie or the New Heloise (1761) by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is extremely high not only at its publication but also along the time, which is also expressed in translations in almost all languages. It corresponds to public expectations and marks a turning point in the history of mentalities. It inspires the desire for simple and rustic life, the love of order and economy, the hatred of vice, the heroism of sacrifice for family virtues. Its fundamental ambiguity allows it to act both by reason and by the heart. Critics refuse to see in the novel the simple illustration or application of Rousseau's ideas about happiness, love, virtue, friendship, nature, children's education, housekeeping. They present it in its literary dimensions.
