Query: Romanticism is dead... Long live Romanticism!

200 years can't make a bad idea good. (Heck, Christianity has proved that 1700 years can't make a bad idea good) Rousseau bogs himself down in the same contradiction that has plagued all followers of the right hand path- the fact that there is no "great return" destroys his entire thesis. Skip this guy- read Thomas Hobbes, Nicolo Machiavelli, or Friedrich Nietzsche. They were political philosophers. Rousseau was just a sophist.
