Items related to Blasphemy: Verbal Offense Against the Sacred, From...
Leonard Levy traces the varied meanings of blasphemy throughout Western law. He argues that while past sanctions against the crime have inhibited all manner of cultural, political, scientific, and literary expression, we also pay a price for our extraordinary expansion of the scope of permissible speech. We have become, he charges, not only a free society but one that is 'numb' to outrage.

Book Description:
"A tour de force of lively writing and keen historical interpretation. . . . This work is both an essential casebook and an outspoken, feisty, important study of the struggle for intellectual and religious liberties."-- Publishers Weekly
From the Back Cover:
This book is about the suppression of freedom of expression in the religious belief and experience; it is also about an inchmeal progression in the scope of freedom of expression.
