About this item
by Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Author), John H. Moran (Translator), Johann Gottfried Herder (Author)
This volume combines Rousseau's essay on the origin of diverse languages with Herder's essay on the genesis of the faculty of speech. Rousseau's essay is important to semiotics and critical theory, as it plays a central role in Jacques Derrida's book Of Grammatology, and both essays are valuable historical and philosophical documents.
