I have found Keohane's Philosophy and the State in France (Princeton, Princeton University Press, 1980) most useful for tracing Augustine's impact on French thought. I have also benefited greatly from Keohane's account of the sixteenth century French humanists. See especially pp. 183-237 and 83-116

'Lettre à Deschamps', 8 May 1761, Correspondance complète de Jean-Jacques Rousseau, ed. R. A. Leigh, Geneva and Madison, University of Wisconsin Press, 1969, vol. 8, p. 320. 'We have got on to slippery ice', Wittgenstein wrote, 'where there is no friction and so in a certain sense the conditions are ideal, but also, just because of that, we are unable to walk. We want to walk: so we need friction. Back to the rough ground!'

Reinhold Niebuhr, a prominent twentieth century American theologian and public philosopher, had claimed in Moral Man and Immoral Society that 'in every human group there is less reason to guide and check impulse, less capacity for self-transcendence, less ability to comprehend the needs of others and therefore more unrestrained egoism than the individuals, who compose the group, reveal in their personal relationships' (New York, Scribners, 1960, pp. xi-xii)
