For this purpose this article resumes a set of writings of Lévi-Strauss about Jean de Léry and the chapter "Rereading Montaigne". This paper claims that the essayist’s skepticism is compatible with the exercise of moral judgement, and that it leads to a kind of universalism, that could be described as broadening the limits of humanity.
