Abstract
An analysis about Jean-Jacques Rousseau�s contribution to the theory of writing and the grammatology. This analysis contains a systematic comparison of the rousseaunian ideas about the language and the writing with another theories of the 17th (Arnauld and Lancelot), 18th (Condillac, Paillasson, Jaucourt) and 20th centuries (Saussure). The contrast of Rousseau�s ideas to Saussure�s about writing also, allows to make explicit Rousseau�s grammatological ideas�s big importance and his relation with the grammatology (Gelb, Derrida, Harris), exceeding avant la lettre modern linguistics�s phonocentrism.
