This volume forms part of Montaigne's groundbreaking work of self-examination, where he records "some traits of my character and of my humours." Through informal, conversational prose mixing learned vocabulary with popular sayings, Montaigne explores topics ranging from the profound to the trivial. His philosophical skepticism questions human certainty and reason, while his candid introspection inadvertently illuminates universal human nature during France's turbulent Wars of Religion.
