He wrote on many subjects — music, education, and others — but it was his Social Contract that gave him universal fame, which is un- dimmed to this day. It is an essay on government, written in a most fascinating style. Its keynote is that no man has an inherent right to govern his fellow men, that the real sovereign of the nation is the people, and that the people who must obey the laws should make them. These principles have been adopted by nearly all nations of the earth. The Social Contract... became the keynote, and its author the prophet, of the Revolution. 1 III. The Benevolent Despots 379. Frederick the Great and Catherine the Great. — The great French writers noticed above made a profound impression not only in France, but in other parts of Europe, notably among the rulers of the period. These rulers remained absolute or despotic ; they made no attempt to take the people into partner- ship with them ; but they made a sincere effort to rule their people well and to put into practice some of the new doctrines of the French writers.
