About the book

Michel de Montaigne's Essays are among the foundational works of personal and philosophical writing in European literature. Montaigne reflects freely on friendship, education, fear, death, habit and human behaviour, using his own experiences as a starting point. His questioning, conversational approach created a new literary form and offers a remarkably intimate portrait of a Renaissance mind.
