John H. McWhorter. Private and Public Lies The Discourse of Despotism and Deceit in the GraecoRoman World The book "Private and Public Lies The Discourse of Despotism and Deceit in the GraecoRoman World" by Dr. John H. McWhorter is a thoughtprovoking exploration of the relationship between power, deception, and technology in ancient civilizations. Through a detailed analysis of texts from the GraecoRoman world, McWhorter reveals how rulers and other powerful individuals used language to manipulate public opinion and maintain control over their subjects. This book provides a fascinating look into the ways in which language was used as a tool for both personal and political gain, and how these strategies continue to influence our understanding of power dynamics today. The book begins with an examination of the role of language in shaping public perceptions of reality, highlighting how rulers used rhetoric to create a narrative that supported their own interests while obscuring the truth. McWhorter shows how this process of manipulation was not limited to the elite but was also employed by ordinary people seeking to advance their own agendas.
John H. McWhorter. Частная и публичная ложь Дискурс деспотизма и обмана в мире GraecoRoman Книга «Частная и публичная ложь Дискурс деспотизма и обмана в мире GraecoRoman» доктора Джона Х. Макуортера - это вдумчивое исследование отношений между властью, обман и технологии в древних цивилизациях. Посредством детального анализа текстов из мира GraecoRoman Макуортер раскрывает, как правители и другие влиятельные личности использовали язык, чтобы манипулировать общественным мнением и сохранять контроль над своими подданными. Эта книга дает увлекательный взгляд на то, как язык использовался в качестве инструмента как для личной, так и для политической выгоды, и как эти стратегии продолжают влиять на наше понимание динамики власти сегодня. Книга начинается с рассмотрения роли языка в формировании общественного восприятия реальности, подчеркивая, как правители использовали риторику для создания повествования, которое поддерживало их собственные интересы, затемняя при этом правду. Макуортер показывает, как этот процесс манипулирования не ограничивался элитой, но также использовался обычными людьми, стремящимися продвигать свои собственные программы.
