    A mãe judia (portuguesa) de Michel de Montaigne ou o carácter implacável do anti–semitismo francês?
    (Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2004) Margarido, Alfredo; Faculdade de Ciências Sociais, Educação e Administração
    The essay raises questions about the silence observed by M. de Montaigne in his Les Essais (1580) about his mother and maternal side of Portuguese (?) Jewish origin, settled in the French Gascony. Was also the exclusion of the widow from the final will of Pierre Eyquem, the father of M. de Montaigne a sign of a cover-up that was intended to permit his heir-descendant to fit into the ranks of the traditional catholic French nobility without any suspicion of “stain” of Jewish blood? What about the silence of the French historiography about this matter? Is it a reflexion of the traditional French antisemitism, reinforced by the happenings in the Iberian peninsula?
