Description
Fearless Speech by Michel Foucault is a study of parrhesia, the ancient Greek concept of frank, courageous speech in the face of power. Based on a series of lectures Foucault delivered in 1983, the book explores how truth-telling operates in political and ethical contexts, focusing on figures like Socrates, Diogenes, and the Cynics. Foucault examines how parrhesia differs from rhetoric and flattery, emphasizing its role in democracy, philosophy, and personal ethics. He also reflects on the risks truth-tellers face, particularly when challenging authority. Through this exploration, Fearless Speech offers insights into the dynamics of power, resistance, and the ethical responsibility of speaking truth in society.
