equivocation  

Définition(s)

  • Equivocation is communication that is ambiguous, indirect, contradictory, or evasive. One dramatic example has come down through the centuries: In 1170, at the height of a dispute with Archbishop Thomas á Becket, King Henry II exclaimed, “Who will rid me of this meddlesome priest?” Then, when four of his knights murdered Becket, Henry denied responsibility.
