Truth and transmission


Introduction
Presented by Catherine Chalier, philosopher
If "transmission" were only biological, things would be clear: we'd have to study how genes and the information they contain "transcend" generations. The complexity arises when we start talking about the transmission of knowledge, what scientific theories have established over time, moral, political or religious values, customs, practices, beliefs, stories, myths, heritage, artistic, literary and philosophical works, and historical memory. What "truths" should we be searching for? Can a truth remain so if it is not transmitted and revitalised from one culture to another? Is there a 'memory' that cannot be transmitted, facts, knowledge and values that should be "erased", not passed on?
