About the event

Montaigne: Living with Doubt and the Birth of the Reflective Self
As part of an ongoing series, 'A History of Western Philosophy', we'll be exploring the thought from the Renaissance to the age of Reason.

About this Event

How should we live when certainty begins to falter? Montaigne, writing amidst cultural and religious upheaval, turned inwards and found wisdom in scepticism, habit, and the honest observation of everyday life. In this session, we’ll examine the emergence of a new kind of self — curious, questioning, and unresolved — and ask whether doubt might not be a weakness, but a form of philosophical courage. Can uncertainty still help us live more thoughtfully?

Suggested Reading: ‘That to Philosophize Is to Learn to Die’ and ‘Of Experience’ from Essays by Micheal de Montaigne
