For over 2500 years the Paradox attributed to Epimenides of Crete resists attempts to locate the "leap of logic" or the "trick" that leads us to make contradictory conclusions.

To date there is not an universally accepted approach to the Paradox.

This presentation starts by posting an explanation, or rather, an unveiling of the paradox created by the author of the site. He has chosen an old nickname, in honour of the glorious Eleatic school of philosophy that flourished in southern Italy, Cilento, near present-day Ascea. 

The nickname is Aristodemos . 

Aristodemos worked on the paradox for a long time.

NOTE: In order to understand the text some familiarity with the Logical Operators could be useful, but not essential.
