He reflected on the great themes of existence in his wise and engaging writings, his subjects ranging from proper conversation and good reading to the raising of children and the endurance of pain, from solitude, destiny, time, and custom, to truth, consciousness, and death. Having stood the test of time, his essays continue to influence writers nearly five hundred years later. Also included in this complete edition of his works are Montaigne’s letters and his travel journal, fascinating records of the experiences and contemplations that would shape and infuse his essays. Montaigne speaks to us always in a personal voice in which his virtues of tolerance, moderation, and understanding are dazzlingly manifest. ___________________________________ 🍀 Buy any item in my closet listed at regular price with the Buy One Get One Free logo and get a second item of equal or lesser value FREE 🍀 From ▪️ Pets & smoke free home
