有理由猜测,蒙田是我们这类俗人最喜欢的思想家和人文作家之一。 在探索人类精神世界与生命意义的长河里,类似《尤利西斯》、《白鲸》级别的难啃书籍太多,像我这种俗人是不会去读完它的,这辈子也翻不到第十页的,拿来装逼也不太好意思。还好有个蒙田,上能与之单向探讨人生,...

评分我们最豪迈,最光荣的事业乃是生活得写意。 这份“写意”,不是活在旁人眼中的,不是写意给别人看的。若非如此,那最豪迈和光荣的事业依然令我们疲累不堪,只不过是换了副样貌,我们依旧在俗世所拥奉的成就中追逐奔劳。 “我们应该拥有妻子、子女、财富,以及最重要的健康。但...

Brilliant, original, funny and moving — a vivid portrait of Montaigne, showing how his ideas gave birth to our modern sense of our inner selves, from Shakespeare's plays to the dilemmas we face today.
How to get on well with people, how to deal with violence, how to adjust to losing someone you love— such questions arise in most people's lives. They are all versions of a bigger question: how do you live? How do you do the good or honourable thing, while flourishing and feeling happy?
This question obsessed Renaissance writers, none more than Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (1533-92), perhaps the first truly modern individual. A nobleman, public official and wine-grower, he wrote free-roaming explorations of his thought and experience, unlike anything written before. He called them 'essays', meaning 'attempts' or 'tries'. Into them he put whatever was in his head: his tastes in wine and food, his childhood memories, the way his dog's ears twitched when it was dreaming, as well as the appalling events of the religious civil wars raging around him. The Essays was an instant bestseller, and over four hundred years later, Montaigne's honesty and charm still draw people to him. Readers come to him in search of companionship, wisdom and entertainment— and in search of themselves.
This book, a spirited and singular biography (and the first full life of Montaigne in English for nearly fifty years), relates the story of his life by way of the questions he posed and the answers he explored. It traces his bizarre upbringing (made to speak only Latin), youthful career and sexual adventures, his travels, and his friendships with the scholar and poet Etienne de La Boétie and with his adopted 'daughter', Marie de Gournay. And as we read, we also meet his readers— who for centuries have found in Montaigne an inexhaustible source of answers to the haunting question, 'how to live?'
这是一本蒙田的传记,也是一本蒙田的作品的传记,它讲述了蒙田的一生和他的作品的前生后世,从希腊的stoicism, skepticism, 和epicureanism三个源头,到蒙田所亲近的罗马人,到痛恨蒙田的笛卡尔和帕斯卡尔,到重又喜欢上他的伏尔泰和启蒙时代众人,到尼采到伍尔夫。蒙田的一生象大多数人一样很难说是幸运还是不幸,他生在贵族家庭但生逢乱世,短短一生经历了无休止的宗教战争,屠杀和清洗,他患有肾结石,一生有近三分之一的时间在定期来临的剧痛中度过,他婚姻谈不上和睦,很早就失去了最亲爱的友人。但是他度过了美满的一生,说如果重来一遍还愿意这样生活。读这本书时我常想到抗战时内战时反右时文革时所有乱世中的那些中国人的生活。最为感动的一段是茨威格二战中在巴西读蒙田的经历。以后定要把蒙田的原作找来读
