The Invisible Censor (1921)

By Francis Hackett

Book Overview

The Invisible Censor is a book written by Francis Hackett and first published in 1921. It is a collection of essays that explore the concept of censorship and its impact on society. Hackett examines various forms of censorship, including government censorship, self-censorship, and the censorship of art and literature. He argues that censorship is often used as a tool of oppression, and that it can have a chilling effect on free speech and creativity. The book also includes discussions of specific instances of censorship, such as the suppression of James Joyce's Ulysses and the censorship of films in Hollywood. Overall, The Invisible Censor is a thought-provoking exploration of a complex and controversial topic that remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
