Michel de Montaigne was a 16th-century French Renaissance philosopher and aristocrat. His famous work Essays is a collection of writings exploring humanity, and especial one human in particular - Montaigne himself. The work, though criticized for its style at the time, was influential in making the essay (lit. "trial") a popular form of writing. This week, The Good Fight will explore Montaigne's sense of self, as well as the skepticism he has and its relationship to words.
