Ideological Censorship --Notes --Bibliography --Index --AcknowledgmentsIn this study of the reciprocities binding religion, politics, law, and literature, Debora Shuger offers a profoundly new history of early modern English censorship, one that bears centrally on issues still current: the rhetoric of ideological extremism, the use of defamation to ruin political opponents, the grounding of law in theological ethics, and the terrible fragility of public spheres. Starting from the question of why no one prior to the mid-1640's argued for free speech or a free press per se, Censorship and Cultural Sensibility surveys the texts against which Tudor-Stuart censorship aimed its biggest guns, which turned out not to be principled dissent but libels, conspiracy fantasies, and hate speech. The book explores the laws that attempted to suppress such material, the cultural values that underwrote this regulation, and, finally, the very different framework of assumptions whose gradual adoption rendered censorship illegitimate. Virtually all substantive law on language concerned defamation, regulating what one could say about other people. Hence Tudor-Stuart laws extended protection only to the person hurt by another's words, never to their speaker. In treating transgressive language as akin to battery, English law differed fundamentally from papal censorship, which construed its target as heresy. There were thus two models of censorship operative in the early modern period, both premised on religious norms, but one concerned primarily with false accusation and libel, the other with false belief and immorality. Shuger investigates the first of these models-the dominant English one-tracing its complex origins in the Roman law of iniuria through medieval theological ethics and Continental jurisprudence to its continuities and discontinuities with current U.S. law. In so doing, she enables her reader to grasp how in certain contexts censorship could be understood as safeguarding both charitable community and personal dignitary rights.Freedom of the pressEnglandHistory16th centuryFreedom of the pressEnglandHistory17th centuryPoliteness (Linguistics)EnglandHistory16th centuryPoliteness (Linguistics)EnglandHistory17th centuryHistory.Medieval and Renaissance Studies.Freedom of the pressHistoryFreedom of the pressHistoryPoliteness (Linguistics)HistoryPoliteness (Linguistics)History342.4208/53Shuger Debora K.1953-1157782MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787525103321Censorship and cultural sensibility3697140UNINA03659oam 2200661I 450 991078469520332120230421044018.01-134-90009-00-415-07758-31-283-60605-497866139185051-134-90010-40-203-14221-710.4324/9780203142219 (CKB)1000000000361159(EBL)179867(OCoLC)181783786(SSID)ssj0000365634(PQKBManifestationID)11271020(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000365634(PQKBWorkID)10414064(PQKB)10148503(MiAaPQ)EBC179867(Au-PeEL)EBL179867(CaPaEBR)ebr10060854(CaONFJC)MIL391850(OCoLC)810924674(EXLCZ)99100000000036115920180331d1993 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrScreening the male exploring masculinities in Hollywood cinema /edited by Steven Cohan and Ina Rae HarkLondon ;New York :Routledge,1993.1 online resource (287 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-138-16951-X 0-415-07759-1 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Cover; SCREENING THE MALE: Exploring masculinities in Hollywood cinema; Copyright; CONTENTS; NOTES ON CONTRIBUTORS; INTRODUCTION; PROLOGUE MASCULINITY AS SPECTACLE : Reflections on men and mainstream cinema; Part I STAR TURNS; 1 VALENTINO, 'OPTIC INTOXICATION,' AND DANCE MADNESS; 2 'FEMINIZING' THE SONG-AND-DANCE MAN: Fred Astaire and the spectacle of masculinity in the Hollywood musical; 3 MAMA'S BOY: Filial hysteria in White Heat; Part II MEN IN WOMEN'S PLACES; 4 THE DIALECTIC OF FEMALE POWER AND MALE HYSTERIA IN PLAY MISTY FOR ME; 5 'DON'T BLAME THIS ON A GIRL': Female rape-revenge films6 DARK DESIRES: Male masochism in the horror film7 'MORE HUMAN THAN I AM ALONE': Womb envy in David Cronenberg's The Fly and Dead Ringers; Part III MAN TOMAN; 8 ANIMALS OR ROMANS: Looking at masculinity in Spartacus; 9 FEMINISM, 'THE BOYZ,' AND OTHER MATTERS REGARDING THE MALE; 10 THE BUDDY POLITIC; Part IV MUSCULAR MASCULINITIES; 11 MASCULINITY AS MULTIPLE MASQUERADE: The 'mature' Stallone and the Stallone clone; 12 DUMB MOVIES FOR DUMB PEOPLE: Masculinity, the body, and the voice in contemporary action cinema; 13 CAN MASCULINITY BE TERMINATED?; INDEX OF FILMS; GENERAL INDEXScreening the male re-examines the problematic status of masculinity both in Hollywood cinema and feminist film theory.Classical Hollywood cinema has been theoretically established as a vast pleasure machine, manufacturing an idealized viewer through its phallocentric ideological apparatus. Feminist criticism has shown how difficult it is for the female viewer to resist becoming implicated in this representational system. But the theroies have overlooked the significance of the problem itself - of the masuline motivation at the core of the system.
