Michel de Montaigne was a philosopher of the French Renaissance, known for making the genre of essays particularly popular.

One of the defining features of Montaigne's thinking is his skepticism. Montaigne's skeptic writing was based upon the skepticism common in ancient literature and philosophy, particularly that of the Greeks. He is particularly close to the ideas of the Pyrrhonists. One of the features of this type of thinking in his work is the encouragement of doubt, and the acceptance of the limits of knowledge.

Discussion Topic Discuss what seems to be the most challenging part of the final, trying-to-get-published" process. Is it writin
blondinia [14]

Answer and Explanation:

The letter and presentation is the most challenging part of the publishing process, because that letter needs to convince the editorial team that the work you wrote has potential. This is because it is in the cover letter that the writer must show the summary of the story, the story as a writer and the relevance of the work in the current market, in relation to the target audience, sales and other elements that are not included in the synopsis.

Obviously, the work can be rejected by the publisher and although this is something sad and discouraging for the writer, there are ways to overcome this moment. Many writers indicate that new writers use rejection to improve their written history, keeping in mind that this is not the right time for publication, thinking positively and believing that the publication will arrive at the right time.

How does the use of an informal writing style best help
maxonik [38]

<u>It helps the writers visualize the inside of a black hole. </u>

<em>The other options can described bluntly and scientifically with just names and numbers. </em>

If the writer were to use more formal writing to describe things so abstract like a black hole, it would be hard for the common reader to understand.

____________________________

for example,

The black hole looks like a giant vacuum of nothingness (informal)

The black hole is like a mass whose Schwarzchild radius is outside of itself (formal)

Which is easier to understand? Most likely the first one because of the use of informal language and writing.

Hope I helped!
