41 If Emile is significant in the context of the relationship between politics and aesthetics in Rousseau's oeuvre, it is because of his programmatic faith in "natural" or "negative" education, which dictates that through infancy and adolescence his Pupil be consciously isolated from virtually all contact with the wider and supposedly corrupt social world.
