Description

Explore the life and impact of one of history's most influential thinkers with The Oxford Handbook of Montaigne. Published by Oxford University Press, this volume examines the legacy of Michel de Montaigne, whose 1580 publication of "Essays" created an entirely new literary genre. While Montaigne's work appears to be a collection of personal reflections, it actually addresses fundamental questions of the human mind.

This handbook provides a deep look into his contributions through various lenses. It brings together essays from prominent scholars to analyze his literary, philosophical, and political impact.
