%X this paper investigates the essay "que philosopher c'est apprendre a mourir", by michel de montaigne. this text is a good example of how the philosopher rejects the metaphysical tradition in which the problem of death has always been thought. we expose that the originality of this essay lies in the fact that montaigne advises us to follow nature, which, in his thought, is indistinguishable from custom.
