Freedom of Speech in Catos Letter on Public Liberty
A fragmentary excerpt discusses freedom of speech as the bulwark of liberty contrasting it with tyranny. It cites Elizabethan and Roman precedents, condemns misrepresentation of public measures, and urges candor for rulers and subjects alike. The text links honest governance to public praise and dishonesty to public detestation.
