Malibu resident to kick off lecture series
Submitted by Malibu United
Methodist Church
The writings of the 18th
century philosopher Jean-
Jacques Rousseau had an
impact on family life and
education, politics and government,
science and religion,
psychology and social
structure in the two-and-ahalf
centuries since.
Rousseau influenced the
American Revolution and
the founding documents,
our school system and family
relationships, and continues
to influence our dayto-day
lives.
Rousseau saw his tasks as
being to move people from
caring only about themselves
to doing what is good
for all people, to persuade us
that there is a possible social
order that is helpful and fair,
and to show people how to
reach the “basic sweetness
of existence.”
In addition to The Social
Contract that established
his ideas of the general will
and liberty, Rousseau wrote
the educational treatise
“Emile,” the first romance
novel “Julia: The New Heloise,”
the first warts-and-all
autobiography “The Confessions,”
the economics
guide “Discourse on Inequality,”
the environmental
musings of “The Reveries
of a Solitary Walker,” and
the critique of science “Discourse
on the Sciences and
Arts,” among others.
Anybody who is interested
in learning how we
are “friends of Rousseau” is
invited to the Malibu United
Methodist Church on Morning
View Drive at 7 p.m.
Tuesday, July 23.
After a year-long hiatus,
the church is reviving the
Charles Green Memorial
Community Lecture Series.
There is no admission fee,
and snacks will be served.
The presenter is Dr. Green’s
son-in-law Larry Jones.
A Malibu resident from
1951 until 1977, Jones
moved back to Malibu in
2012 with his wife of 38
years, Marilyn Green. Jones
taught history at Malibu
Park Jr. High in the 1980s
and then at Moorpark High
School for 25 years. Jones
was inducted into the Ventura
County Educators’ Hall
of Fame in 2010, and he
coached the Moorpark High
Academic Decathlon Team
to four U.S. National Championships
and 13 Ventura
County Championships.
He also was the director of
the federal Teaching American
History project through
which he taught content and
skills to 170 history teachers
for five years until his retirement.
Jones is looking forward
to his presentation to show
why Immanuel Kant said
that “Jean-Jacques Rousseau
was the Isaac Newton
of the moral universe.”
