Blending intellectual speculation with anecdote and personal
reflection, the Renaissance thinker and writer Montaigne pioneered
the modern essay. This selection contains his idiosyncratic and
timeless writings on subjects as varied as the virtues of solitude,
the power of the imagination, the pleasures of reading, the
importance of sleep and why we sometimes laugh and cry at the same
things. 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.
