Areopagitica

A speech for the Liberty of Unlicensed Printing, to the Parlament of England (Annotated - Easy to Read Layout)

More about the book

The book explores the historical evolution of press freedom in England, beginning with the introduction of printing. It highlights the establishment of the Stationers' Company in 1557, which granted exclusive printing rights to a select group of London stationers. This centralization of printing under government oversight restricted legal printing to licensed members of the Company, empowering them to monitor and confiscate unauthorized publications. The narrative delves into the implications of these regulations on freedom of expression and the publishing industry.
