Description

Essays by Michel de Montaigne

In 1571, Michel de Montaigne, a wealthy French civil servant, retired officially from public life to live, as he put it, in “freedom, tranquillity, and leisure.” Almost immediately, he began writing the essays that were to ensure his fame long after his death in 1592. Montaigne was a man who, while writing on topics both diverse and personal, managed to stay so close to the core of what is permanent and universal in human life that the centuries cannot divide him from us.

This book comes with the original booklet ‘Notes from the Editors’.
