À propos de cet audio

Episode One of Free Speech journeys back to the origins of free expression, exploring how this radical idea emerged and evolved across millennia. Beginning in ancient Athens with the concept of parrhesia, or frank speech, the episode traces free speech through Roman law, medieval theological debates, and the Protestant Reformation. The heart of the story lies in the Enlightenment, where philosophers like John Milton, John Locke, and Voltaire articulated powerful arguments for why free expression was essential to human dignity and the pursuit of truth. The episode culminates with the American and French Revolutions, when these ideas exploded into political reality and were enshrined in founding documents, establishing free speech as a cornerstone of modern democracy.
