About this Book

 Parrhesia in the ancient Hellenic language means to speak and say the truth and what is true. It means saying what you know to be true, what is true, despite all kinds of risks, but with courage. The person who uses parrhesia embodies risk and courage at the expense of making those in power uneasy. If the one in power is blinded by the fawning ones, he wants to punish the truth teller in the most severe way with the power in his hands as soon as he hears the truth. It is not parrhesia to tell a truth that everyone knows and that will not disturb anyone
