Essais

Montaigne, Michel de

1600

En 1580, Michel de Montaigne dio a la imprenta la primera edición de sus dos libros de Los ensayos. El éxito fue tan arrollador que, dos años más tarde, apareció una nueva edición, aumentada con un tercer libro y con notables adiciones y correcciones en los dos primeros. Se completaba así la redacción de uno de los libros que mayor prestigio e influencia han tenido en el pensamiento occidental. Sin embargo, el gentilhombre perigordino siguió trabajando en el texto de sus ensayos hasta su muerte, acaecida en 1592. Tres años más tarde, Marie de Gournay, «fille d?alliance» de Montaigne, presentaba una edición de Los ensayos siguiendo las instrucciones que le diera su autor, edición que durante siglos ha sido considerada canónica, hasta que Strowski preparó la suya entre 1906 y 1933. Hoy, el de Marie de Gournay es visto de nuevo, con justicia, como el texto de referencia, y sirve de base a todas las ediciones recientes fiables. Éste es también el que el lector hispano encontrará en la presente edición, enriquecida con referencias a los múltiples estadios que experimentó el texto y con un completo aparato de notas. Una edición útil al especialista y próxima al lector común.

Henry Cloud, John Sims Townsend, Elisa Morgan

What does it take to raise great kids? If you've read any books on parenting, conflicting opinions have probably left you feeling confused. Get tough! Show acceptance. Lay down the rules. Lighten up, already! - There's got to be a balance -- and there is. Joining their expertise with the wisdom of MOPS International (Mothers of Preschoolers), Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend help you provide both the care and acceptance that make grace real to your child, and the firmness and discipline that give direction. Avoiding the twin extremes of permissiveness and over-control, Drs. Cloud and Townsend show how you can help your child cultivate six necessary character traits: attachment, responsibility, reality, competence, morality, and worship/spiritual life. - At last, here is an effective middle ground for raising up children who will handle life with maturity and wisdom. Raising Great Kids will help you equip your son or daughter to accept life's responsibilities, grow from its challenges, and freely and fully explore all that it has to offer.
