Updated the external links again
[edit]I just removed the University of Adelaide link as that leads to nowhere and updated the Gutenberg link pointing to the wayback machine.

[edit]Shouldn't there be an article for each of Montaigne's essays?
- Too many to all list here, with analysis and everything.
- Also, Montaigne may have been a humanist, but he was also a Deist, not one of the raving atheist humanists.
I don't think Montaigne really espoused anything like the degree of cultural relativism we have today; he certainly observed and marveled at the variety of the peoples of the world, but in simply not being judgmental, I do not think he was being a relativist. I propose, therefore, to modify that sentence. User:Waster

Content
[edit]I am going to begin to add some more citations to the "Content" section, which currently links to a picture... Sissizheng (talk) 06:41, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
Content
[edit]I think the second paragraph of the content section needs some more citations. As I can see you're already aware of that. I think your additions to the article are really good. The citations you use are reliable, and the language you use seems neutral. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caleb Jeffreys (talk • contribs) 19:10, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
on style
[edit]the previous description of montaigne's style was unrecognizable to me, and i have been reading montaigne for six decades. the paragraph itself is uninformed but also incoherent, attributing a "structured" rhetoric to a book famous for breaking structure with asides, insertions and revisions, and claiming his "argument" is not designed to prove anything. i checked the citation at Britannica and can find nothing to support the previous characterization.Drollere (talk) 17:22, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
