Summer with Montaigne by Antoine Compagnon – A Bestselling Journey into the Essays
Antoine Compagnon (b. 1950), a distinguished literary scholar and professor at the Collège de France, brings his deep expertise to this accessible companion to Montaigne's Essays. In 2012, Compagnon prepared a series of forty short broadcasts for France Inter radio, exploring the major themes of Montaigne’s singular work. The book Summer with Montaigne, compiled from these broadcasts, was published in France the following year and became a bestseller.
With the ease of a native strolling through a familiar city, Compagnon guides readers through the quirky and vast landscape of the Essays. He shares the delight of recognizing its landmarks and curiosities, making Montaigne’s revolutionary worldview—the foundation of modern thought and the essay genre—approachable and enjoyable. This is a light, engaging read for anyone interested in philosophy, literature, or the art of living well.
