Montagne's Approach to Humanism

Montagne was predestined for humanism. He never delved deeply into scholastic topics, biting my nails over the study of Aristotle. For him, as for Erasmus, the schoolmen were preoccupied with trivial matters when they should be trying to learn how to live. Unlike his rough contemporaries, Schaliger or the younger Kasobong, Montagne devoted his efforts to improving himself.
