"À partir de découvertes et de la réévaluation des traditions manuscrites et imprimées, les meilleurs spécialistes reprennent ici sur nouveaux frais le dossier de la circulation de la 'Servitude volontaire' de La Boétie. Les sept études ici recueillies mettent en scène toute une série de possesseurs, de lecteurs et de producteurs réunis autour d'un texte dont la circulation n'implique pourtant pas simplement la réception. Il s'agit de rendre compte de la mouvance d'un texte facilement adaptable à la recontextualisation, au regard de la tyrannie de Marie Stuart ou de la cause des Malcontents en France. Ainsi la primauté autrefois accordée à un seul manuscrit (BnF Fonds français 839) cède-t-elle le pas à une pluralité de traditions, soulignant la souplesse de la 'Servitude volontaire' à l'échelle européenne." -- Back cover

Truth Be Told will help readers understand exactly how to achieve this and present the core truths of their company or organization, to drive clear, authentic purpose powered communication.
