In their cultivated discontinuities, in their unexpected division into chapters, in their lightness of tone, in their allusiveness & their tumbling into anecdote & into historical gossip, his essays have brought writing as near as it can come to talk among friends." -from the Introduction by Stuart Hampshire * Humanist, skeptic, acute observer of himself & others, Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) was the first to use the term "essay" to refer to the form he pioneered, & he has remained one of its most famous practitioners. He reflected on the great themes of existence in his wise & engaging writings, his subjects ranging from proper conversation & good reading, to the raising of children & the endurance of pain, from solitude, destiny, time, & custom, to truth, consciousness, & death. Having stood the test of time, his essays continue to influence writers nearly 500 years later. Also included in this complete edition of his works are Montaigne's letters & his travel journal, fascinating records of the experiences & contemplations that would shape & infuse his essays. Montaigne speaks to us always in a personal voice in which his virtues of tolerance, moderation, & understanding are dazzlingly manifest. Donald M. Frame's masterful translation is widely acknowledged to be the classic English version. * HIGHEST CRITICAL PRAISE: "A faithful translation is rare; a translation which preserves intact the original text is very rare; a perfect translation of Montaigne appears impossible. Yet Donald Frame has realized this feat. One does not seem to be reading a translation, so smooth & easy is the style; at each moment, one seems to be listening to Montaigne himself, the freshness of his ideas, the unexpected choice of words. Frame has kept everything." -NYTBR * SHIPPING: Mnemosyne carefully wraps, labels & packages this splendid book w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the United States & its territories.

Each volume is printed in a classic typeface on acid-free, cream wove paper with a sewn full cloth binding. Shakespeare wrote tragedies from the beginning of his career. One of his earliest plays was the Roman tragedy Titus Andronicus, which he followed a few years later with Romeo and Juliet. However, his most admired tragedies were written in a seven-year period between 1601 and 1608. These include his four major tragedies Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth, along with Antony & Cleopatra, Coriolanus, Cymbeline, Julius Caesar and the lesser-known Timon of Athens and Troilus and Cressida.
