10. Montaigne - Part 2




The Canon Ball show

Summary: On this episode we do a deep dive into the longest of Montaigne's essays, the Apology for Raymond Sebond! And boy do we get confused! Is Montaigne a Pyrrhonist? Is Pyrrhonism a form of deconstruction? Are Montaigne's politics regressive? Are Montaigne's politics progressive? Do we answer any of these questions? Just listen to find out the answer is "no!" But if you leave as baffled as we were we consider our jobs done. Check out some of the other podcasts on Agora like Thom Daly’s “American Biography,” which looks at American history through a human prism by examining the lives of important, if less discussed, Americans who have exerted great influence upon the nation's development.
