Why read Montaigne today? Richard Scholar argues that Montaigne,
whose essays were read by Shakespeare and remain a landmark of
European culture, is above all a masterful exponent of the art of
free-thinking. Montaigne invites his readers to follow the twists
and turns of his mind, and challenges them to embark on an inner
adventure of their own. Free-thinking is an art every bit as
difficult to practice today as it was in sixteenth-century France,
but it remains equally crucial to a fulfilled life and to a healthy
body politic, and Montaigne offers his readers a master-class in
that art.
