Jared Holley is Lecturer in Political Theory at University of Edinburgh
Holley's account casts Rousseau as a modern and ""refined"" Epicurean. Drawing on a scholarly reconstruction of Eighteenth-century Epicureanism, his work seamlessly intertwines aesthetics and politics. Through a masterful examination of taste, it provides a fresh perspective on the perennial debate about the general will.--C�line Spector, Sorbonne University This is an important contribution to the understanding of Rousseau's paradoxes concerning the relations between happiness and virtue. Holley carefully reconstructs what Epicureanism meant to Rousseau and his contemporaries and shows how Rousseau's ""refined Epicureanism"" uses taste and judgment to mediate between pleasure and morality.--Christopher Kelly, Boston College
