The book ""Profession of Faith of a Savoyard Vicar: Also, A Search for Truth"" is a philosophical work written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau in 1889. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part being a dialogue between a Savoyard vicar and a philosopher about the nature of religion and faith. The vicar argues that religion is a matter of personal experience and that true faith cannot be dictated by the church or any external authority. The philosopher, on the other hand, argues that reason and evidence are the only valid sources of knowledge and that religion is a product of superstition and ignorance.The second part of the book is a personal reflection by Rousseau on his own search for truth and meaning in life. He discusses his own struggles with religion and his eventual rejection of organized religion in favor of a more personal and individualistic spirituality. Throughout the book, Rousseau explores themes of faith, reason, morality, and the nature of human existence.Overall, ""Profession of Faith of a Savoyard Vicar: Also, A Search for Truth"" is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges readers to question their own beliefs and assumptions about religion and spirituality. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, theology, or the nature of human existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
