«Ensayos II» is the philosophical work by Michel de Montaigne, published by Orbis in hardback in 1984, with 391 pages in Spanish.
Ensayos II gathers Montaigne's reflections on his readings, personal experience and long travels, in chapters on man, morality, life and death. Without a linear purpose, the work moves from a philosophy heir to the classics to a meditation on dying well: thinking about death makes freedom and knowledge possible.
This is the second volume of the complete edition of Montaigne's «Ensayos»; the volume's ISBN is 9788475305271.
For readers interested in sixteenth-century French humanist thought and in the essay as a literary genre.
Michel Eyquem, Seigneur de Montaigne, commonly known as just Michel de Montaigne, was one of the most significant philosophers of the French Renaissance. He is known for popularising the essay as a literary genre. His work is noted for its merging of casual anecdotes and autobiography with intellectual insight. Montaigne had a direct influence on numerous writers of Western literature; his Essais contain some of the most influential essays ever written.
