Abstract

The Renaissance’s thought was responsible for a vigorous reflection on the metaphysical man’s standing in the cosmos and on the action’s role in the social life. Taking into account this context, this paper intends to debate on Montaigne’s thought, regarding its link as well its divergences from humanist thought, especially these divergences that made possible the development of the peculiar philosopher’s manière: the essay form.
