This book is a historically informed and textually grounded study
of the connections between Montaigne, the inventor of the essay,
and Nietzsche, who thought of himself as an "attempter." In
conversation with the Essais, Nietzsche developed key themes of his
oeuvre: experimental scepticism, gay science, the quest for drives
beneath consciousness, the free spirit, the affirmation of
sexuality and the body, and the meaning of greatness. Robert Miner
explores these connections in the context of Nietzsche's reverence
for Montaigne-a reverence he held for no other author-and asks what
Montaigne would make of Nietzsche. The question arises from
Nietzsche himself, who both celebrates Montaigne and includes him
among a small number of authors to whose judgment he is prepared to
submit.
