Lying Politics and a Dream Reflections on Deception
The writer attacks widespread political lies spread by a powerful faction and historical figures such as Richlieu Mazarin and de Retz. He notes the deep-rooted custom of deception in public discourse, cites Horace and Solon, then pivots to a dream inspired by these reflections, promising to end the discussion with that nocturnal vision.
