Friedrich considers the "Montaigne of the Essays" on of the first
'moralists' in the French sense of the term, recording with
anthropological fervor and in fresh, informal language the full
spectrum of human thought and commerce as he saw it. Philippe
Desan, who introduces this fine translation, commends Friedrich's
holistic interpretation of "Montaigne"'s unstructured creation, so
often reduced by critics to its smallest fragments. Friedrich, says
Desan, evokes 'an epoch, distilled from accounts given by the best
witness of the Renaissance'.
