About the author

Jean de La Bruyère

1645–1696

Best known for a sharp, witty portrait of human nature, this 17th-century French moralist turned close observation into memorable prose. His writing is compact, elegant, and surprisingly modern in the way it notices vanity, ambition, and everyday behavior.
