For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 INTRO For centuries, society has debated the issue of book censorship. Before Johannes Gutenberg introduced the printing press in 1455, the burning ofhand-scribed books destroyed limited copies and guaranteed they would not be read. With the printing press, books could be produced in greater numbers; yet, printed speech was still a commodity that could be controlled. In 1517, Pope Leo X condemned Martin Luther's Ninety Five Theses, an early example of religious censorship of materials deemed dangerous or subversive. Political censorship quickly followed when Emperor Charles V issued the Edict ofWorms, containing a "Law ofPrinting" which banned the printing, copying, sale, or reading of Luther's writings (Foerstel xi). Beginning in 1564, the Catholic papacy promulgated its Index Librorum Prohibitorum (Index of Prohibited Books). Compiled by the Holy Inquisition in Rome, the Index listed the books and authors Catholics were prohibited from printing or reading. -
Chapter I Introduction
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This first chapter outlines the main background and problem identification as the introductory gate of the research in order to have a better a comprehension toward the research topic. I.1. Background In mass communication, the written culture has progressively been overshadowed by an audiovisual culture. Parsa (2004) explains that in the present day, what was previously pages worth of documentation could easily be told in a 2-hour movie or a 60-minute documentary. An emphasis on visual messages does not necessarily mean that words are less important. The most powerful and meaningful messages are combined with words and pictures. Considering the rapid developments in technology, we are gradually moving toward a visually mediated society. The world has been caught up in an ever-flowing process, which can only be explained through the unique rules of an ‘audio-visual language’ with the invention of photographs, cinemas and televisions, which are used to record both still and moving images, although the ‘written language’ is still remains fundamental to the construction of meaning and the meaning itself. To facilitate a better understanding toward the written narratives, supporting images can be found in cinemas, newspapers, magazines, books, posters, computer screens, television screens, clothes and even restaurant menus. (Parsa 2002, 844). Image has in fact a dual nature, being both concrete and capable of expressing larger meanings symbolically and metaphorically as it speaks within an experiential, assosiationistic, and holistic logic (Barry 1997, 122). Parsa (2004) tries to break down the strength of visual image that differs from written text, as quoted from Schneider & Raue: 1 Visual image is neither good nor bad information compared to texts. -

An Exploration of Pre-Censorship of Children’S Books: Perceptions and Experiences of Canadian Authors and Illustrators
AN EXPLORATION OF PRE-CENSORSHIP OF CHILDREN’S BOOKS: PERCEPTIONS AND EXPERIENCES OF CANADIAN AUTHORS AND ILLUSTRATORS by CHERIE LYNN GIVENS A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Library, Archival and Information Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) September 2009 © Cherie Lynn Givens, 2009 Abstract There is little documentation of pre-censorship of children’s literature. The discussion of pre-censorship is often submerged within more general censorship discussions and not specifically identified. It is addressed in snippets of information revealed in interviews and responses to questionnaires concerning censorship. This study was designed to examine in detail the phenomenon of pre-censorship as experienced by Canadian children’s and young adult authors and illustrators. A qualitative, naturalistic methodology was selected to explore participants’ experiences through in-depth interviews with open-ended questions designed to encourage participants to speak at length and share thoughts, feelings, and insights. Seventeen Canadian authors and illustrators, who self-identified as having experienced pre-censorship, participated in this study. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with all but one of the participants, whose interview was conducted by telephone and a follow-up in-person meeting. Most participants requested confidentiality, wishing to keep their names and the titles of the books undisclosed. Participants provided concrete examples of how pre-censorship was experienced by authors and illustrators. Types of pre-censorship were identified. Reasons given for pre- censorship make clear that marketing and sales concerns as well as a fear of censorship after publication are dominant motivating factors. -

Building a Better Mousetrap
ISN_FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 10/24/2013 6:04 PM SUPER-INTERMEDIARIES, CODE, HUMAN RIGHTS IRA STEVEN NATHENSON* Abstract We live in an age of intermediated network communications. Although the internet includes many intermediaries, some stand heads and shoulders above the rest. This article examines some of the responsibilities of “Super-Intermediaries” such as YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, intermediaries that have tremendous power over their users’ human rights. After considering the controversy arising from the incendiary YouTube video Innocence of Muslims, the article suggests that Super-Intermediaries face a difficult and likely impossible mission of fully servicing the broad tapestry of human rights contained in the International Bill of Human Rights. The article further considers how intermediary content-control pro- cedures focus too heavily on intellectual property, and are poorly suited to balancing the broader and often-conflicting set of values embodied in human rights law. Finally, the article examines a num- ber of steps that Super-Intermediaries might take to resolve difficult content problems and ultimately suggests that intermediaries sub- scribe to a set of process-based guiding principles—a form of Digital Due Process—so that intermediaries can better foster human dignity. * Associate Professor of Law, St. Thomas University School of Law, inathen- [email protected]. I would like to thank the editors of the Intercultural Human Rights Law Review, particularly Amber Bounelis and Tina Marie Trunzo Lute, as well as symposium editor Lauren Smith. Additional thanks are due to Daniel Joyce and Molly Land for their comments at the symposium.

GOOGLE SUMMARY* Copyright / Preliminary Injunction Chief Judge Thomas issued an amended order denying rehearing en banc of the three-judge panel’s order directing Google and YouTube to remove immediately all or part of the film Innocence of Muslims from their platforms and to prevent further uploads. Dissenting from the initial denial of emergency rehearing en banc of the three-judge panel’s order, Judge Reinhardt wrote that this was a case in which the court not only tolerated the infringement of fundamental First Amendment rights but also was the architect of that infringement. He wrote that although he agreed with the en banc court’s majority opinion, immediate en banc consideration would have been the only way of preventing the irreparable damage to free speech rights caused by the three-judge panel’s order in the period before the case could be taken en banc under the court’s regular procedure. ORDER As noted in the order filed March 14, 2014, a judge of this Court made a sua sponte request for a vote on whether to rehear en banc the panel’s order of February 28, 2014 denying an emergency stay of the panel’s prior orders, as amended, directing Google and YouTube to remove * This summary constitutes no part of the opinion of the court.
