Abstract/Summary:
This thesis is a reading of Rousseau's thought from the environmental ethics perspective. The author holds that the concept of "state of nature" can be interpreted as the theoretical basis of that part of the environmental ethics concerned with the inter-specific relations. The work also reveals that environmental ethics is a valid hermeneutic tool since it lights hidden elements of rousseaunian state of nature and save from philosophic oblivion Rousseau's passion for Botany.
