Beschreibung
8vo. Pp. 46. Sewn wraps, but once bound with other material, with evidence of the remnant of that binding. Slight foxing and edgewear. An early reprint, done so by W. T. Sherwin test the government's prosecutorial powers, which had been weakened. According to James Epstein, in Radical Expression (Oxford, 1994), "conditions had changed: the government could no longer be certain of winning convictions in cases of seditious libel. Indeed, in the wake of Wooler's and Hone's legal victories, the prosecution of London's radical publishers temporarily ceased. Carlile, who had been arrested and charged with blasphemy for having reprinted Hone's parodies, was released from King's Bench prison following Hone's acquittals." An important milestone in the nascent free press. Now housed in an clear, removable archival sleeve with acid-free backing. . Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 2087
