The note he wrote that provoked two nations to hunt you

This episode explores the life of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a man whose philosophical writings led to warrants for his arrest in France and Geneva. It delves into the formative experiences that shaped his "free and republican spirit" and the profound impact of his ideas.

Person: Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Date: July 2, 1778
Location: Northern France
Status: Fugitive
Topic: Dangerous ideas

- Jean-Jacques Rousseau was hunted across Europe for 16 years by France and Geneva for a book he wrote.
- Rousseau's childhood in Geneva was influenced by the city-state's governance and the suppression of democratic reformers.
- His father, Isaac, instilled in him a "free and republican spirit" through readings of Plutarch's Lives.
- At fifteen, Rousseau left Geneva after finding the city gates locked past curfew, an unplanned act of defiance.
- He converted to Catholicism at the age of fifteen, a decision that cost him his Genevan citizenship.
