Montaigne Studies, An Interdisciplinary Forum - n°31

Publication: mars 2019

Résumé: Les Montaigne Studies présentent des recherches interdisciplinaires sur Montaigne et son œuvre, ainsi que des documents originaux relatifs à l’auteur et ses écrits.

This special issue offers a series of transhistorical and interdisciplinary studies that draw the dense network of contexts, uses and meanings assumed by Montaigne’s figure and work in America, along different fields (literature, philosophy, political theory, gender studies). From the century of independence to the contemporary, from Benjamin Franklin to Judith Butler, Montaigne acted as an influential voice in the ongoing transatlantic conversation that shaped the American social, political, and cultural identity.
