Exploring the origins of democracy, the narrative contrasts the idealized vision of democratic man with the realities of social hierarchy. It highlights the romanticized notion of the "noble savage," suggesting that early democratic ideals were rooted in a belief in the inherent virtues of the lower classes. This perspective posits that perceived inferiority can paradoxically confer a unique superiority, a concept that continues to influence contemporary views on democracy and social equity. The analysis underscores the enduring implications of these foundational ideas.
