520    "When Henry Vizetelly was imprisoned in 1889 for 
       publishing the novels of Émile Zola in English, the 
       problem was not just Zola's French candour about sex--it 
       was that Vizetelly's books were cheap, and ordinary people
       could read them. Censored exposes the role that power 
       plays in censorship. In twenty-five chapters focusing on a
       wide range of texts, including the Bible, slave narratives,
       modernist classics, comic books, and Chicana/o literature,
       Matthew Fellion and Katherine Inglis chart the forces that
       have driven censorship in the United Kingdom and the 
       United States for over six hundred years, from fears of 
       civil unrest and corruptible youth to the oppression of 
       various groups--religious and political dissidents, same-
       sex lovers, the working class, immigrants, women, 
       racialized people, and those who have been incarcerated or
       enslaved. The authors also consider the weight of speech, 
       and when restraints might be justified. Rich with 
       illustrations that bring to life the personalities and the
       books that feature in its stories, Censored takes readers 
       behind the scenes into the courtroom battles, legislative 
       debates, public campaigns, and private exchanges that have
       shaped the course of literature. A vital reminder that the
       freedom of speech has always been fragile and never 
       enjoyed equally by all, Censored offers lessons from the 
       past to guard against threats to literature in a new 
       political era."
