Day three of Ten-day Short form Challenge

Michel de Montaigne was the first person to use the term essay to describe his writings. Michel de Montaigne was an memoirist and essayist from the 16th century. Nobody ever wrote a book about him titled Montaigne Can Save Your Life, but Sarah Bakewell did write How to Live: Or a Life of Montaigne in One Question and 20 Attempts at an Answer(not an affiliate link) in 2011. This summer I finally got around to finishing that book.

Montaigne was famous for his Essays or memoir writings. And is one of the most famous writers during the French Renaissance in the 16th century?

Here is a link to his Wikipedia page if you want to find out more.

Thank you for reading
