This dissertation analyzes the social and familial environments that impact the development of a child's healthy interiority, the basis of character. Previously unconsidered aspects of Rousseau's educational theory reveal that Rousseau not only stressed the importance of the educator knowing the child but equally to know their Self. Without the educator (defined as teacher, parent or caregiver) engaging in a self-reflective process, the space drawn around the successive stages of childhood is compromised since the educator cannot understand the role they play in determining the nature of a child's enclosure. The result of this research is a new consideration of pedagogical theory which is responsive to the individual needs of both the child and educator and attentive to the larger concerns of society. Rousseau's ╔mile , through text and frontispiece illustrations, is critically examined against contemporary psychological research and current socio-political influences to understand the development of thinking and learning skills, which are seen as preconditions for the development of character..
