aletheia
A Greek word ἀλήθεια translated truth.
Formed from the prefix α- meaning not, and lethei λήθη meaning forgetfulness.
Translated veritas in Latin.
Truth is therefore a kind of remembering something forgotten, or a recollecting of what is essentially real. Etymologically, the word aletheia suggests that truth is also unforgettable (i.e., not lethei), that is, it has its own inherent and irresistible 'witness' to reality.[1]
This website is a collection of articles for a limited range of topics based on my search for truth.
