In this book, author Myles Dungan forcefully analyzes the struggle of Irish nationalist newspapers in the riotous decade of the 1880s - in particular, that of the Parnellite newspaper United Ireland. While examining the extent of British censorship in dealing with Irish nationalist newspapers, Dungan provides a fresh and involving consideration of the ways in which United Ireland could be accused of committing the same crimes as the British administrations. Making extensive use of fascinating archival materials, the book establishes the different ways in which both British administrations - th

Nederland heeft slechts twee periodes gekend van nationale overheidscensuur: de Franse tijd van 1810-1813 en de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Maar dat betekent niet dat buiten die tijdvakken elk geschrift gedrukt kon worden. Sinds de uitvinding van de boekdrukkunst is controle uitgeoefend op de verspreiding van gedachtegoed dat gevaarlijk geacht werd voor zeden, godsdienst of politiek. Door de eeuwen heen zijn er voortdurend gevallen van verboden boeken geweest. Dit is de eerste studie die deze ontwikkeling in Nederland over een langere periode bekijkt. Aan de hand van opvallende processen en verboden biedt dit boek een chronologisch overzicht van de stand van de censuur in brede zin: alles rond het tegenwerken of verbieden van openbaarmaking via druk, inclusief zelfcensuur ter bescherming van de eigen positie. De bijdragen tonen een overheid die dan weer onberekenbaar is, dan weer scherp, dan weer wankelmoedig. Deze onvoorspelbaarheid leidde ook tot eigen controlediensten bij de katholieken en een zelfstandig moralistisch aanschafbeleid van openbare bibliotheken.

One of the most colorful figures in English political history, John Wilkes (1726-97) is remembered as the father of the British free press, defender of civil and political liberties, and hero to American colonists, who attended closely to his outspoken endorsements of liberty. Wilkes's political career was rancorous, involving duels, imprisonments in the Tower of London, and the Massacre of St. George's Fields in which seven of his supporters were shot to death by government troops. He was equally famous for his "private" life-a confessed libertine, a member of the notorious Hellfire Club, and the author of what has been called the dirtiest poem in the English language.This lively biography draws a full portrait of John Wilkes from his childhood days through his heyday as a journalist and agitator, his defiance of government prosecutions for libel and obscenity, his fight against exclusion from Parliament, and his service as lord mayor of London on the eve of the American Revolution. Told here with the force and immediacy of a firsthand newspaper account, Wilkes's own remarkable story is inseparable from the larger story of modern civil liberties and how they came to fruition.
