Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Jurgen and the Law" is a compelling historical record detailing the landmark legal battle over James Branch Cabell's masterpiece, "Jurgen." Compiled by Guy Holt, this volume serves as an essential primary source for understanding the struggle for literary freedom and the evolution of obscenity laws in the early twentieth century. When "Jurgen" was suppressed by the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, it sparked a significant defense of creative expression and the limits of state censorship over the arts.This work includes a meticulous statement of the case, the full brief for the defendants on the motion to direct an acquittal, and the court's official opinion. By presenting the actual legal arguments and exhibits used to challenge the suppression of Cabell's writing, the book offers deep insights into the intersection of art, morality, and the judicial system. It remains a vital text for scholars of legal history, students of American literature, and anyone interested in the enduring fight against book banning and the protection of the written word.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
