He was born in Geneva in 1714. His mother died a few days after his birth, and he was raised by his father, a clockmaker, who cared for learning and had Rousseau read classical Greek and Roman literature. He left Geneva at age of 16 in 1728 fleeing to Annecy. Through the years, Rousseau started earning money by being music teacher, as a lackey, etc. Rousseau moved to Paris in 1742 to pursue a career as a musician and composer. In Paris, he soon befriended Diderot, who would go on to fame as an editor of the Encyclopédie. Rousseau’s rise to fame came with the appearance of his Discourse on the Arts and Sciences, named the winning entry in an essay competition by the Academy of Dijon in 1750. During his final ten years of life, Rousseau completed a number of other works. He composed the Considerations on the Government of Poland and Dialogues: Rousseau Judge of Jean-Jacques in 1772, although both were published only posthumously. He composed his final work, The Reveries of a Solitary Walker, in 1777.

Born on August 29, 1632 in England. Locke was an English philosopher and an inspiration to the European Enlightenment, French Revolution, and the USA Constitution. He believed in empiricism and political liberalism. Empiricism is the belief that all our knowledge is only gained through experience or using our five senses, not inherited. Then from political liberalism, Locke supported being ruled by a political party and relied on its "protection". His most known work was “An Essay Concerning Human Understanding” published in 1689 based on empiricism, after he talks about how we obtain ethical, scientific, religious and numerical knowledge, to name a few.
