What exactly is a lie, Svendsen asks, and how does lying differ from related phenomena, such as "bullshit" or being truthful? Svendsen also investigates the ethics of lying--why is lying almost always morally wrong, and why is lying to one's friends especially bad? The book concludes by looking at lying in politics, from Plato's theory of the "noble lie" to the Big Lie of Donald Trump.As phrases like "fake news" and "alternative facts" permeate our feeds, Svendsen's conclusion is perhaps a surprising one: that, even though we all occasionally lie, we are for the most part trustworthy. Trusting others makes one vulnerable, and we will all be duped from time to time. But all things considered, Svendsen contends, truthfulness and vulnerability are preferable to living in a constant state of distrust.177.3Svendsen Lars1620338Bagguley Matt1620339MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828200803321A Philosophy of Lying3953046UNINA01026nam0 22002651i 450 UON0033836020231205104248.63320091014f |0itac50 bafreFR|||| 1||||ˆLes ‰ problémes théoriques de la traductionGeorges Mouninpréface de Dominique Aury[Eaure]Gallimardc1963296 p.23 cm.TraduzioneProblematicheUONC029233FI418.0205Traduzione e interpretazione21MOUNINGeorgesUONV057460132397AURYDominiqueUONV151778GallimardUONV246610650ITSOL20250530RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00338360SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI Port Ling II 0155 SI SP 1186 5 0155 Problemes theoriques de la traduction27676UNIOR
