The Following Is an Excerpt from Jean-Jacques Rousseau's the Confessions

The following is an excerpt from Jean-Jacques Rousseau's The Confessions (Thinking Like a Historian) : "I have resolved on an enterprise which has no precedent, and which, once complete, will have no imitator. My purpose is to display to my kind a portrait in every way true to nature, and the man I shall portray will be myself. Simply myself. I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike any one I have ever met; I will even venture to say that I am like no one in the whole world. I may be no better, but at least I am different. Whether Nature did well or ill in breaking the mould in which she formed me, is a question which can only be resolved after the reading of my book."

A) He saw himself as unique.
