Writer botanist great traveler in his early life political thinker Bernardin de Saint-Pierre achieved fame with his Etudes de la nature and Paul et Virginie a fable about the fall and misfortunes of virtue a poetic narrative whose protagonists' deaths establish a new theodicy regarding death and providence. It should be added that the Voyage à L'île de France is undoubtedly one of the journeys not only among the best written but also among the most finely observed. Beyond this the anecdotes about Rousseau are of the greatest appeal and the essay on the philosopher of great interest; Bernardin de Saint-Pierre was not only Jean-Jacques Rousseau's friend but his principal disciple.
