The Confessions (Les Confessions) by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a foundational text in modern literature, widely considered the first true autobiography in the Western tradition for its unprecedented psychological intimacy and raw transparency.
Rousseau divided the work into two distinct parts, written at different times and covering vastly different periods of his life. Part II (Books VII to XII) moves away from the romanticized, youthful wanderings of his early life and plunges into his rise to fame, his turbulent relationships with the Paris intelligentsia, and his eventual descent into paranoia and exile.
