Description:
Michel de Montaigne was one of the most influential figures of the Renaissance, singlehandedly responsible for popularising the essay as a literary form. This Penguin Classics edition of The Complete Essays is translated from the French and edited with an introduction and notes by M.A. Screech.
In 1572 Montaigne retired to his estates in order to devote himself to leisure, reading and reflection. There he wrote his constantly expanding 'assays', inspired by the ideas he found in books contained in his library and from his own experience. He discusses subjects as diverse as war-horses and cannibals, poetry and politics, sex and religion, love and friendship, ecstasy and experience. But, above all, Montaigne studied himself as a way of drawing out his own inner nature and that of men and women in general. The Essays are among the most idiosyncratic and personal works in all literature and provide an engaging insight into a wise Renaissance mind, continuing to give pleasure and enlightenment to modern readers.
With its extensive introduction and notes, M.A. Screech's edition of Montaigne is widely regarded as the most distinguished of recent times.
Michel de Montaigne (1533-1586) studied law and spent a number of years working as a counsellor before devoting his life to reading, writing and reflection.
If you enjoyed The Complete Essays, you might like Francois Rabelais's Gargantua and Pantagruel, also available in Penguin Classics.
'Screech's fine version ... must surely serve as the definitive English Montaigne'

'A superb edition'

Good mat, good price, 'nuff said.
Size: 30" X 20", Color: Grey
While the photo suggests that this mat is enormous, it is a pretty good size at 30 x 20 inches. The chenille is very soft and feels nice on your feet. There is a rubber backing that prevents slippage on smooth bathroom floors. Overall there is nothing terribly noteworthy about this bathmat - it's a nice, high quality mat at a very good price. A good deal every day.

Great rug, especially for the price!
Size: 30" X 20", Color: Black
This rug was perfect for our small bathroom. It acts as a rug for the toilet and for the bathtub at the same time. So far it is holding up nicely and has fantastic grip on our lvp flooring and is so soft on my feet! 10/10 would buy again!
