The Death of the Hero in Montaigne's Essais

My research explores how Montaigne engages with and challenges classical heroic ideals and questions what it means to be considered a hero. I would like to extend my thanks to the Laidlaw Foundation for this opportunity and to my supervisor Emma Claussen for her valuable support and advice.

Hi! I'm Hannah, a second year Undergrad studying French and Latin at the University of Cambridge. I have a particular interest in Early Modern French Literature and History.

In my free time, I love spending time outdoors and doing sports - from climbing mountains and running to going for walks with friends and rowing for my college boat club. I'm definitely happiest when outside in nature! I am also an avid reader, and I adore travelling, exploring new places and getting to know new people.
