Pensées sur divers sujets, Avec les Réflexions Morales du même Auteur - Oxenstierna, Johan Thuresson 1666-1733; Bruzen de La Martinière, Antoine Augustin 1662-1746 (The Hague Van Duren, 1749)
Following the example of the French 17th-century moralists, Johan Oxenstierna—a Swedish count and author—wrote aphorisms and short essays on ethical, religious and aesthetic issues, elegantly crafted with little depth but highly regarded by his contemporaries, who called him 'the Montaigne of the North'.
