Episode description
From the 20th c. BCE, discourses on truth and justice delivered by a peasant who has been robbed by a dishonest official. This leads us into meditations on the class basis of the State, discourses of class compromise, and finally the way that class rule can operate not only by speaking to its subjects or by silencing dissenting views but also by making them speak.
