The Theory, History, and Practice of Parrhesia

Zusatztext

<p>This book examines the theory, history, and practice of parrhesia¿the act of speaking truth to power, when doing so is risky for the rhetor¿and argues for a networked rhetorical approach to parrhesia that has not been considered previously by any other theorist. The goal of this book is to offer a reader-friendly explanation of this networked rhetorical approach to parrhesia, provide a genealogical account of the origins of parrhesia in the Classical age, and to show how parrhesia manifests today. <em>This book</em> is meant to give readers a functional manual for understanding, recognizing, analyzing, articulating, and using parrhesia.</p>
