Blakemore Elizabeth, Dharwadker Aparna, Harris Tim Banned Books

Immerse yourself in the stories behind the most shocking and infamous books ever published! Censorship of one form or another has existed almost as long as the written word, while definitions of what is deemed "acceptable" in published works have shifted over the centuries, and from culture to culture. Banned Books explores why some of the world's most important literary classics and seminal non-fiction titles were once deemed too controversial for the public to read - whether for challenging racial or sexual norms, satirizing public figures, or simply being deemed unfit for young readers. From the banning of All Quiet on the Western Front and the repeated suppression of On the Origin of the Species, to the uproar provoked by Lady Chatterley's Lover, entries offer a fascinating chronological account of censorship and the astonishing role that some banned books have played in changing history. Packed with eye-opening insights into the history of the written word and the political and social climate during the period of suppression or censorship, this is a must-read for anyone interested in literature; creative writing; politics; history or law. Delve into this compelling collection of the world's most controversial books to discover: - Covers a broad range of genres and subject areas in fiction and non-fiction, ranging from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland to Spycatcher - Offers informative insights into society, politics, law, and religious belief, in different countries around the world - Features images of first editions and specially commissioned illustrations of the books' authors - Includes extracts from the banned books along with key quotations about them - Completely global in scope A must-have volume for avid readers and literary scholars alike, alongside those with an interest in the law, politics and censorship, Banned Books profiles a selection of the most infamous, intriguing and controversial books ever written, whilst offering a unique perspective on the history of the written world - with insights into the often surprising reasons books have been banned throughout history and across the world. Whether as a gift or self-purchase, this brilliant book is a must-have addition to the library of curious thinkers, borrowers and lifelong learners. If you enjoy Banned Books, then why not try Great Loves - the first title in DK's quirky new hardback series, full of insightful and intriguing topics.

Цензура в той или иной форме существовала почти столько же, сколько и письменное слово, в то время как определения того, что считается "приемлемым" в опубликованных произведениях, менялись на протяжении веков и от культуры к культуре. "Запрещенные книги" исследуют, почему некоторые из самых важных произведений мировой литературной классики и оригинальных научно-популярных изданий когда-то считались слишком спорными для чтения широкой публикой - будь то за оспаривание расовых или сексуальных норм, высмеивание общественных деятелей или просто за то, что их сочли неподходящими для юных читателей. От запрета "Все тихо на западном фронте" и неоднократного подавления "Происхождения видов" до скандала, спровоцированного любовником леди Чаттерли, записи предлагают увлекательный хронологический отчет о цензуре и удивительной роли, которую некоторые запрещенные книги сыграли в изменении истории.
