Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the arguments against censorship from Ernest Boyd, challenging the very premise of literary restraint and obscenity laws. The author posits that there can be no objective definition of obscenity, making any attempt to censor literature, subjective, and therefore, potentially biased. Boyd points out the absurdity of using subjective standards to measure the morality of books, and argues that such censorship has more to do with the pathology of the censor than the content of the book. In the end, the author implores readers to recognize the value of artistic freedom and the dangers of censorship, which ultimately stifles creativity and innovation.
