A literary genre was born. At first sight, the Essays resemble a patchwork of personal reflections, but they engage with questions that animate the human mind, and they tend toward a single goal: to live better in the present and to prepare for death. For this reason, Montaigne's thought and writings have been a subject of enduring interest across disciplines. This Handbook brings together essays by prominent scholars, who examine Montaigne's literary, philosophical, and political contributions and who assess his legacy and relevance today in a global perspective. The chapters of this Handbook offer a sweeping study of Montaigne across different disciplines and in a global perspective. 588 Description based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on October 31, 2016). 600 10 Montaigne, Michel de, |d1533-1592 |xCriticism and interpretation. 700 1 Desan, Philippe, |eeditor. 776 |z0-19-021533-X 830 0 Oxford handbooks online. 906 BOOK
