Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization, and helped make us who we are. Michel de Montaigne was the originator of the modern essay form; in these diverse pieces he expresses his views on relationships, contemplates the idea that man is no different from any animal, argues that all cultures should be respected, and attempts, by an exploration of himself, to understand the nature of humanity.

At the time Michel de Montaigne was writing, most books were about great people or events, or works of academic theology or philosophy. He instead aimed to relay, with total honesty, his habits, doubts, and weaknesses, and any modest wisdom he had gained as a son, husband, politician, and reader. This very subjective approach to knowledge established the modern form of the essay. Montaigne’s vast range of topics include human nature, books, cannibals, smells, sex, household management, education, politics, and happiness. 
This selected edition, based on the popular Charles Cotton translation, includes many of the classic essays along with some lesser-known ones. It includes an insightful Introduction by Montaigne scholar Philippe Desan which reveals how the Essays transformed literature by elevating the familiar over the abstract. In the process, Montaigne created a template for the modern, questioning self.
