     Among the notable books of later times­we may say, without exaggeration, of all time—

must be reckoned The Confessions of Jean Jacques Rousseau. It deals with leading personages

and transactions of a momentous epoch, when absolutism and feudalism were rallying for their

last struggle against the modern spirit, chiefly represented by Voltaire, the Encyclopedists, and

Rousseau himself—a struggle to which, after many fierce intestine quarrels and sanguinary wars

throughout Europe and America, has succeeded the prevalence of those more tolerant and

rational principles by which the statesmen of our own day are actuated.

A absolutism and feudalism should be supported strongly by the modern thinkers of the time

B Voltaire, the Encyclopedists, and Rousseau caused wars throughout Europe and America

C more tolerant and rational principles were a part of the movement before the wars in Europe

and America

D Rousseau and others were responsible for bringing about better forms of government to
