Rousseau in his Emile gave Defoe's Robinson Crusoe a position of importance in the education of his protege. Despite this sponsorship on the part of Rousseau and despite there being some common ground between these two writers on education the differences of educational outlook are greater than the similarities especially in the two areas of eighteenth century educational debate concerning Nature and Nurture and Private and Public education.
