The Essays of Michel de Montaigne Online

Support HyperEssays

My goal with HyperEssays is to create a modern and accessible online edition of Montaigne’s Essays, complete with context and tools for first-time readers and students.

This long-term project requires extensive effort: preparing chapter PDFs (nearly 700 so far), writing notes, building and updating an index (160 entries and counting), tracking classical and early modern sources (almost 200 of those), translating and copyediting in both French and English, designing and maintaining the website, and more.

If you believe in the importance of making such a valuable resource freely available on the Internet, please consider supporting HyperEssays. Your contribution will help ensure that this project remains accessible to all, now and in the future.
