Synopsis
Excerpt from Les Sources Et l'Évolution des Essais de Montaigne, Vol. 1: Les Sources Et la Chronologie des Essais
Son originalité est d'avoir écrit un livre dont la préoccupation dominante est d'organiser la vie a la lumière dela seule raison. Ce livre n'a pas ressuscité une des doctrines morales de l'antiquité, il a fait mieux que cela; il a réveillé l'esprit qui leur est commun a toutes, la méthode rationnelle. Ce n'est pas aux préceptes que Montaigne s'attache avant tout; il donne un exemple. Il montre comment il faut examiner les maximes et les expériences morales pour en tirer, chacun dans son particulier, le plus grand profit possible. Il ense1gne comment chacun peut s'adapter à soi-même les règles anciennes, s'enrichir de leur trésor. Voici comme je fais, nous dit-il essayez - vous de même; connaissez-vous, lisez et profitez. La méthode l'a préoccupé avant tout, et voilà pourquoi, parmi toutes les tentatives similaires faites par ses contemporains, son oeuvre a atteint le plus haut degré d'originalité et a seule obtenu un succès durable.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This sixteenth-century book ponders the relationship between pagan rationalist morality and Christian tradition, particularly in the stimulating philosophical climate of Renaissance France. The author meticulously examines how esteemed pagan philosophers like Seneca and Plutarch were gradually integrated into Christian thought to guide morality and provide practical life lessons. Yet, despite this assimilation, the author maintains the vibrancy of the pagan rationalist method, advocating for personal Vernunft as the supreme authority over blind adherence to tradition. This fascinating journey through history charts the evolution of moral philosophy, highlighting the significance of critical thinking in shaping our understanding of right and wrong.
