#Montaigne #Essais

Chapter 20 is a long chapter (the 18th longest of the Essays) and one of the few for which we can be sure of its date. #Montaigne mentions his own age in it (39). We know it was written initially in winter/spring 1572.

Ali Benmakhlouf was Phillip John Usher’s second guest on Conversations With People Who Read #Montaigne. This installment, in French, is available here:

Their conversation followed the same pattern as the first:

1. How and when did you start reading the Essays?

2. Which chapter matters the most to you?

3. Why read Montaigne today? (with an interesting aside about #ChatGPG)

4. What book/article about Montaigne do your recommend?
https://youtu.be/Dj8wORaCsAU?t=1507

Benmakhlouf then talked about his most recent book (L’humanité des autres, Albin Michel, 2023, https://www.albin-michel.fr/lhumanite-des-autres-9782226476449), Montaigne and humanism, and a worthwhile distinction to be made between “The Other” and “others.”

The conversation ends with a Q&A (with a question about translation, something we’re naturally very interested in.)

On a demandé à Dall-E une photographie de #Montaigne inscrivant son dernier Essai.
Bon. Pas sûr que cela fasse avancer la science.

A year ago, as we started to add a #bibliography section to hyperessays.net, we looked for the right reference manager for our project. And because we couldn’t find one, we did the only rational thing to do and wrote our own. 😜

Today, we’re happy to announce HyperEssays’s first spin-off projects: Citato, a bibliography editor and reference manager for Mac. 🎉 🥳

https://citato.app/

To celebrate Citato’s release, we’re giving away 10 free downloads: Just drop us a line at m2m@hyperessays.net to receive a promo code. (No strings attached; the app is yours to use as you see fit; you’re not signing up for anything, no newsletter or mailing list, nothing.)

Citato is great to organize and format citations (#APA, Chicago, #MLA, ISO 690, etc.). It can export formatted bibliographies to RTF, HTML, plain text as well as #TEI biblStruct lists. We made the app we wanted to use and we hope you find it useful too.

Email or @ us if you have questions.

Now back to #Montaigne.

I hightly doubt that this comic resembles a true event 🤔

Extreme Skepticism

#Montaigne, #Hume, and #Descartes are modern #skeptics who formulate specific #skepticisms about how we understand the world.

#Pyrrho on the other hand was an ancient #skeptic supposedly #skeptical of everything and anything. However, fittingly, we don't really know his exact beliefs, so we should take a skeptical stance towards anything people ascribe to him.

New 🎉 on hyperessays.net: a #bibliography page, an evolving record of #Montaigne-related scholarship.

This section, like everything else on the site, is #wip. We’ll be adding new entries regularly and are taking suggestions. We’ve prioritized recent scholarship but are working to fill the (large) gaps in past decades.

At the most difficult point in his life Stefan Zweig came across a copy of Montaigne's ' Essays' and felt as if he had found an understanding friend. He sat down and wrote a brief biographical portrait of the French Renaissance philosopher and thinker and in the process tells much of himself and his own life.
