SYNOPSIS
"Brings the man to life and shows his questions, ideas, and solutions to be every bit as relevant as they were in the 16th century." —New York Journal of Books
Michel de Montaigne embodies the humanist ideal—curious, measured, contemplative yet not unworldly, witty, free of prejudice, and urbane. But what does this French Renaissance philosopher have to tell us about how to think and live today? In forty short, erudite, and lively chapters written over a single summer, Antoine Compagnon seeks answers to that question.
In A Summer with Montaigne, Compagnon invites his readers to join him as he strolls through Montaigne’s key contributions to our understanding of what is good and worthwhile in life. This engaging book, then, serves as both an introduction to Montaigne for readers unfamiliar with his work and a refresher for those who are already acquainted with his unique brilliance, vitality, and timeliness. Montaigne’s Essays deal with themes that remain relevant today, from the problems posed by religion, war, power, and friendship to the absurdity of our fixations and peccadillos. Accompanying readers through the Essays, Compagnon never pontificates and is never austere. Rather, he approaches Montaigne with a sense of humor, admiration, and joy.
"Agreeably useful reading in any season." —Library Journal

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Antoine Compagnon
Nascido em 1950, Antoine Compagnon ensinou na Sorbonne e na Universidade Columbia de Nova Iorque. É, desde 2006, Professor Catedrático de Literatura Francesa Moderna e Contemporânea: história, crítica, teoria no Collège de France. É nomeadamente o autor de La Troisième République des Lettres (1983), Les cinq Paradoxes de la Modernité (1990) e Les Antimodernes, de Joseph de Maistre à Roland Barthes (2005). Depois de ter leccionado na Universidade de Vincennes e na Escola Prática de Ciências Sociais, e de ter fundado, conjuntamente com o ex-Presidente da República François Mitterrand, o Festival de Ópera e Teatro Barroco de Versalhes, ascendeu, em 1990, ao cargo de secretário-geral do serviço literário da Gallimard. No entanto, em 1994, abandonou todas as suas funções para se dedicar inteiramente à escrita. Da sua obra mais tardia destacam-se Tous Les Matins du Monde (1991-1993, Todas as Manhãs do Mundo), romance que mereceu uma adaptação para o cinema pela mão do realizador francês Alain Corneau, no ano de 1991, e que contava a história da vida do músico Marin Marais; L'Occupation Americaine (1994-1996, A Ocupação Americana ) e Dernier Royaume (2002).
